Beyoncé and Jay-Z Buying 58 Acres of UK Land to Build Mansion
The estate will span 58 acres, featuring a mansion with seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms overlooking a lake, as the couple finalizes land purchase in the Cotswolds.
- On August 28, 2025, Beyoncé, singer, and Jay-Z, rapper and producer, reportedly received planning permission to build a 'spectacular rural estate' on a 58-acre plot near Wigginton, Oxfordshire, close to Great Tew, Oxfordshire in the Cotswolds.
- After recent Los Angeles wildfires, the couple began house-hunting in the UK, drawn to the Cotswolds for its privacy, space, and celebrity neighbours while keeping an LA base.
- Designs reportedly show a mansion with seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms overlooking a lake, while drone images reveal a derelict 'shack' and an algae-filled lake on the plot, with a $10 million guide price and build costs estimated north of $24 million.
- Locals in Wigginton reacted that residents are divided over the celebrity influx, with some warning house prices will rise, while one nearby resident told The Times `I don't give a flying toss`.
- If completed, the purchase would place the Carters among A-list neighbours in the Cotswolds, though sources say they will likely keep their Los Angeles base, making the UK a second home.
