Beyonce and Jay Z's net worth as a couple made them one of the top 10 richest celebrity couples in the world. That's why it should not come as a surprise when they purchased a converted church mansion with Spanish baroque style in May this year for $2.6 million.
They have also been recognized as Forbes' highest paid celebrity couple for many years. Unfortunately, they were dethroned by a younger couple this year, Taylor and Calvin Harris, who have a net worth of $146 million (based on annual income). Beyonce and Jay-Z meanwhile have a net worth of $110.5 million.
The power couple's newest digs is situated in New Orleans Historic Garden District, half a block off the Mardi Gras route, which puts them closer to Beyonce's sister Solange and to her clothing boutique, Exodus Goods, in the French Quarter.
It is massive in size with 13,000 square feet and features 22 beds and 15 bathrooms. It used to be a Presbytarian church and a ballet school built in 1925, The Stir reports.
The mansion boasts 26-foot ceilings, a rooftop garden, and three 1,000-square-foot one-bedroom apartments. The first thing that would attract everyone is its Spanish Baroque style architecture on its façade. Inside, the home is designed with marble floors and a sweeping staircase.
The family living room offers a lot of space with an open loft just above it. There's also a long dining table in the dining room that can accommodate a number of guests.
Beyonce and Jay-Z share one daughter named Blue Ivy Carter. The powerful duo owns a number of properties all over the world. Aside from their new mansion, they also own a mansion in Westchester County, New York, a waterfront Villa in Miami, and a lavish apartment in New York City.
The couple's On-the-Run tour was the fifth highest grossing in 2014. Both Beyonce and Jay-Z are actively engaged in several business deals. Bey has her own fragrance line and is engaged with companies including Pepsi, H&M and others.
Jay-Z owns Roc Nation, an entertainment company, D'Ussé cognac and Armand de Brignac champagne. All these ventures add to Beyonce and Jay Z's net worth.
