Following the birth of their eldest daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, the "Crazy in Love" singer and the "Empire State of Mind" rapper welcomed twins Rumi and Sir Carter in 2017. Blue Ivy was five at the time.

When it comes to the family's lifestyle, the mogul parents spare no expense. As a result of their incredibly triumphant careers, the celebrity couple can more than afford to indulge in luxury. Apart from being loving parents of three and outside of their musical talents, which have seen them achieve many accolades, the power couple is also recognized for their entrepreneurial endeavors and projects.

Earlier this year, an accredited media outlet profiled the 15 richest stars who made their list of America's Richest Self-Made Women. A list of which Beyoncé, who has won the highest amount of Grammys than any other artist in history, ranks highly.

Some noteworthy projects that spearheaded her high rank include her clothing line, Ivy Park, her recent couture collaboration with Balmain, and her Renaissance tour. The lavish Malibu mansion she and her husband purchased together contributed as well.

Given the extensive wealth both Beyoncé and Jay-Z have built up over the years, it comes as no surprise that the lovebirds love to spoil each other with expensive gifts. In 2010, a news outlet reported that the singing sensation purchased a $2 million Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport for her spouse on his 41st birthday.

Similarly, two years after buying what is deemed the world's fastest road car, Beyoncé balled out on Jay-Z again, this time for Father's Day. In 2012, the "Single Ladies" musician gifted him a private jet worth $40 million. A few amenities on the luxury jet include two bathrooms, a full kitchen, and a fully stocked bar.

Throughout their years as professionals, Beyoncé and Jay-Z have built quite an impressive real-estate portfolio, which boasts sprawling mansions with luxury designs. Of their homes, their primary residence is a Bel-Air mansion.

When it comes to impressive houses, Jay-Z and Beyoncé boast some of the wealthiest mansions in the U.S. They purchased their main estate in Bel-Air for a whopping $88 million in 2017.

Originally listed at $135 million, before the couple managed to reduce the asking price to the amount they paid, the transaction made headlines and tied for third place as the most expensive house in the area of Los Angeles. The incredible estate, which sits on two acres, boasts a plethora of assets.

Some remarkable features include an array of wellness facilities, a media room, staff quarters, a basketball court, a huge garage accommodating up to 15 vehicles, and four swimming pools outside. Though Beyoncé tends to be private regarding the details of the furniture and design of her lavish home, some pictures from her social media account show amazing glimpses into their mansion.

These images show that the superstar couple most likely has a preference for neutral colors. Their living room boasts a sleek gray-scale palette, and the walk-in closet and the dining room are covered in cream and white colors.

A past interview with the editor-in-chief of a fashion magazine referred to the home's overall vibe as tranquil while he attended dinner at the pair's compound. According to Edward Enninful:

"...the house is impressively minimalist, with acres of white walls, gleaming glass, and beautiful art..."

Overlooking West Los Angeles, Beyoncé and Jay-Z's stunning abode has large glass window panes that allow floods of sunlight to come in. Comprised of six separate structures, the mansion boasts an ample interior space of 30,000 square feet.

The estate's exteriors are just as equally impressive as the interior spaces. A news outlet reports that the sprawling terraces and patios add an extra 10,000 square feet of living space.

As mentioned before, the pair have more than one home. Earlier this year, news reports stated that Jay-Z and Beyoncé had made another hefty real estate purchase.

They bought a 30,000-square-foot concrete mansion in Malibu worth $200 million. This purchase ranked as the most expensive deal in real estate in California.

Resting atop an 8-acre bluff in Paradise Cove's Billionaire's Row area, the Malibu residence overlooks the Pacific Ocean. Its L-shaped concrete form boasts ceiling-to-floor glass panels, vast hallways, and a pool in the expansive backyard.

Though they may have other homes, the musically gifted couple still refer to their Bel Air mansion as their main "home." Close sources of the couple confirmed that their Bel Air residence is also close to where their kids attend school and is near their friends. The Bel Air mansion is also where the global superstar and mom of three feels she can fully be herself:

"I'm a little messy...Whenever I'm out in public, I have to be put together. When I get home, I rebel against it...I'm relaxed..."

In addition to their lavish homes in Bel-Air and Malibu, the star couple has done real estate deals in Miami Beach, the Hamptons, New York City, and New Orleans. Outside of their separate bachelor and bachelorette pads, which they owned and rented before getting together and marrying each other, reports state that the first home Jay-Z and Beyoncè purchased as a couple was in Miami.

Before selling their Mediterranean-inspired Miami villa, the couple were neighbors to Adriana Lima, Tom Brady, and Gisele Bundchen, to name a few. The sprawling villa boasted seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms.

After selling their Miami home, the couple went on to rent expensive and luxurious houses in Bridgehampton and Holmby Hills. In 2015, they purchased a 13,300-square-foot mansion, listed at $2.6 million, in New Orleans.

The estates mentioned above are only some of the noteworthy purchases Beyoncé and Jay-Z have made over the years.

The wealthy couple continues to build on their incredible entrepreneurial legacies and remain established as high-ranking icons within both the entertainment industry and the real estate world.
