Country star-turned pop princess Taylor Swift just added another prime piece of real estate to her roster. The ‘Bad Blood’ singer just invested $25 million on a Beverly Hills mansion – in cash, no less.
The 25-year old even got a deal on the estate, which was originally listed for $39 million in March. In June, it was further reduced to $27.995 million before Taylor finally snagged it as of October 1st for $25 million.
Taylor initially kept her purchase hush-hush, asking to have her name masked behind an LLC. We now know that this “mystery buyer” is none other than the platinum record-selling phenom herself.
Previously owned by legendary Hollywood film producer Samuel Goldwyn, the 10,982-square-foot home is situated on close to two acres, making the property expansive yet still somewhat cozy.
With six bedrooms and five bathrooms, there is certainly plenty of space to continue her regular girls-night-in parties with fellow Tinseltown stars like Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid, and Cara Delevingne, among others. But she’s got a guest suite with a private entrance on the main level of the home, as well as a two-room guest apartment located above the garage to accommodate for these overnight guests.
The main house features luxuries including a library, gym, card room, and a theater equipped with a 35mm projection screen. The property surrounding the 1934 expansive estate home includes extensive gardens, a swimming pool, a pool house with a kitchenette, and a sunken tennis court.
With Mr. Goldwyn owning the home at one time, it would come as no surprise that the home was often visited by Hollywood legends, including Charlie Chaplin, Clark Gable, Bette Davis, and Frank Capra. The home was passed down to the film producer’s son, Samuel Goldwyn Jr., when the Sr. Goldwyn passed away in 1974.
This isn’t TayTay’s first rodeo in the world of real estate transactions. She’s had a string of purchases over the past few years, including the following:
▪ A 4,000+ duplex penthouse in Nashville she bought for $2 million in 2009;
▪ A Greek-inspired home on nearly six acres in Nashville she bought for $2.5 million in 2011;
▪ A Beverly Hills mansion she bought for $3.55 million in 2011;
▪ A 12,000 square foot Rhode Island ‘Watch Hill’ estate she bought for $17.75 million in 2013;
▪ A two-unit duplex penthouse in Manhattan’s Tribeca neighborhood she bought for $20 million in 2014, which was previously owned by “Lord of the Rings” filmmaker Peter Jackson.
Considering the fact that Taylor has amassed a fortune since she first made a name for herself in Tennessee (according to Forbes, the songstress accumulated $80 million between June 2014 and June 2015), she can easily afford all these digs, which she’ll most likely add to some time in the near future as her name and earnings continue to grow.
