Taylor Swift just turned 30 and already owns at least $81 million in real estate in the US. Here's a look at her mansions and penthouses.
[taylor swift]Frazer Harrison/Getty * Taylor Swift turned 30 on December 13, 2019. * Swift is a real estate mogul — she owns homes in four different states from California to New York, and they're worth a total of $81 million, according to property values estimated by Trulia. * She most recently purchased a condo in Tribeca in 2018 — her third property on the same block in the Manhattan neighborhood. * Back in August, she was spotted looking for real estate in London to be near her boyfriend, British actor Joe Alwyn, according to Page Six. * Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories. Taylor Swift just turned 30, and she owns (way) more real estate than most people her age. Swift's homes are arguably as impressive as her singing career. The "Lover" singer has a reported net worth of $360 million and a huge chunk of that is parked in real estate. Swift owns more than $81 million worth of real estate across the US — seven properties in four different states, to be exact — according to estimates provided to Business Insider by Trulia. And she might be adding to that soon. In August, Swift was spotted looking at real estate in London in the $30 million price range, reported Page Six. Swift reportedly wants to be near her boyfriend of three years, British actor Joe Alwyn. "Taylor is looking for a grand home in London with two kitchens, so she and Joe can live in privacy and entertain properly," a source told Page Six. "They've been splitting their time between [his native] London and [her home in] Nashville." [Taylor Swift real estate map list] Let's walk through Swift's real estate. NASHVILLE Google Maps Let's begin in Nashville, Tennessee, where Swift launched her country music career. It's only fitting for her to have at least one property there, but she has two. There's the 3,240-square-foot condo in Nashville's Music Row, which she bought at age 20. Swift said in an interview with Vulture, who described the condo's aesthetic as "whimsically girlie," that she did the interior design herself. Worth an estimated $3 million, the condo boasts industrial-style features and skyline views of midtown Nashville thanks to its floor-to-ceiling windows. In June 2011, she purchased a 1934 Greek Revival estate in Nashville that features a 5,600-square-foot main house with four bedrooms and four-and-a-half bathrooms. Out back there's a pool and a 2,000-square-foot guesthouse. Trulia estimates it to be worth nearly $2.5 million — and that's the least expensive property she owns. LOS ANGELES Google Maps Ever the superstar, Swift also spends time in Los Angeles. In 2018, she sold her Beverly Hills Cape Cod-style cottage of 2,826 square feet for $4 million and her 2,950-square-foot Beverly Hills home for $2.65 million. Surrounded by lush greenery, mountains, a pool, and a sprawling patio area, the mod-style single-story home is light and airy with floor-to-ceiling glass, skylights, a private courtyard, and a 1,000-bottle climate-controlled wine cellar. But she still has one LA property left — the iconic 1934 Beverly Hills mansion she purchased in September 2015. It was previously home to Hollywood film producer Samuel Goldwyn. Swift plans to turn the 10,982-square-foot Georgian Revival estate into a historic landmark and restore it to its former status now that the Beverly Hills Cultural Heritage Commission has voted in favor of her request. Worth nearly $30 million, it's the most expensive piece of property in her real estate portfolio, according to Trulia's estimates. RHODE ISLAND Google Maps But Nashville and Beverly Hills aren't the only places she calls home. Across the coast, Swift owns an estate with seaside views in Watch Hill, Rhode Island, valued at $6.65 million. The seven-bedroom, nine-bathroom mansion of 12,000 square feet overlooks 700 feet of shoreline with views of Block Island Sound and Montauk Point. The grapevine whispers that Swift bought the home in April 2013 after breaking up with Conor Kennedy — the famous Kennedy Family Compound is not far. A dream vacation home, it's the perfect place for parties with her squad. Remember Swift's famous Fourth of July party in 2016? But that's only one of four properties Swift has in the northeast. The rest are all in New York City, specifically in Tribeca — and they're all on the same block. SEE THE REST OF THE STORY AT BUSINESS INSIDER SEE ALSO: * A $150 million estate with an underground tunnel just shattered California's real-estate record. Here are the 15 most expensive homes sold in the US over the past decade. * Rupert Murdoch's son just bought a $150 million Los Angeles estate, shattering California's sales record.
