In addition, it ranks as the second most expensive house in United States real estate history. A New York City apartment that sold for $238 million wins as the most pricey place.

Insiders revealed that Beyoncé and Jay-Z purchased the mansion from William Bell. He ranks as one of the largest art collectors in the world. And Bell built the power couple’s new home over a 15-year period. Spread out over a 30,000-square-foot property, the home was designed by Japanese master architect Tadao Ando. Ando also designed the $57.3 million mansion that Kanye West bought amid during his divorce from Kim Kardashian.

However, while ordinary folks may feel stunned at the sum, the power couple apparently bargained to get their new home at that price. The original listing was for $295 million. But when news of the purchase went viral, critics complained that the price seemed offensive and excessive.

But the new homeowners celebrated at dinner in London. And seemingly not disturbed by the criticism, Beyoncé, 41, and Jay-Z, 53, dined at Harry’s Bar in Mayfair. They enjoyed a delicious soufflé with billionaire entrepreneur Nassef Sawiris, according to sources. Queen Bey wore a bedazzled black mini dress and overcoat.

The new mansion joins Jay-Z and Beyoncé’s existing real estate portfolio. They spent $88 million in 2017 for a house in Bel-Air. And the couple also spent $26 million on a mansion in the Hamptons that same year. Beyoncé has acquired a net worth of $450 million. And Jay-Z has $2.5 billion. Since tying the knot in 2008,  Beyoncé and Jay-Z have welcomed their children Blue Ivy, 11, and twins Rumi and Sir, 5, into the world.
