Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s $26 Million Hamptons Estate
Back in 2017, just months after welcoming twins Rumi and Sir, Beyoncé and Jay-Z expanded their real estate portfolio with the purchase of a $26 million Hamptons estate.
Known as the Pond House, the East Hampton property sits on the edge of Georgica Pond, offering panoramic waterfront views and privacy fit for music royalty.
Spanning 12,000 square feet and originally designed by famed architect Stanford White, the estate opens up with its historic craftsmanship with modern luxury, as seen in Zillow’s Pinterest post.

Despite the Pond House’s blend of historic character and modern elegance, the East Hampton estate was on the market for 8 years before the couple purchased it, originally listed for $39.5 million.
Below, you can see a video created by 929Media for the listing in 2016, a year before it finally caught the eye of Beyoncé and Jay-Z.
It’s not hard to see why they loved the estate so much, with its 17 acres of meadow preserve as its neighbor, hand-carved heated marble tubs, and 18th-century French Louis XV carved stone fireplaces.
Five Spots We Are Crazy in Love With
While we’re captivated by every corner of this remarkable estate, we’ve selected the five standout spots that truly steal the show.
#5: The Guest Cottage
Right outside the main house, the 1800 square foot guest cottage sits in its own quiet corner of the property. On Pinterest, a post by Cottages & Gardens shows an external view of the house with its neatly manicured entrance leading the way to double glass doors underneath a wraparound porch.
#4: The Open Floor Plan
A post by Zillow on Pinterest shows a wide angle of the open layout that houses the kitchen, family room, and dining area. What we love most about this space is the natural light seeping through the walls to brighten all three spaces.
#3: The Formal Living Room
Thanks to Brit + Co on Pinterest, we get to see those beautiful 18th-century carved stone fireplaces and Herrington bone floors that bring this space to the number three spot on our list.
#2: The Primary Suite Bathroom
Coming in at number two is the primary suite bathroom featuring one of the many hand-carved heated marble tubs placed like a piece of art in front of the lattice-framed windows, as pinned by Zillow.
#1: Pool and Spa
Of course, our number one favorite spot in Beyonce & Jay-Z’s East Hampton home is the 25′ x 45′ foot infinity-edged pool and spa with a front row view of Georgica Lake. StreetEasy on Pinterest shows us what the view from the backyard looks like, making us dream of days ending with a sunset swim.
Final Thoughts
Tucked away along the banks of Georgica Pond, Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s Hamptons estate stands as one of the crown jewels in their $313 million real estate portfolio.
Purchased in 2017, just months after the birth of their twins, the home came at a time of both personal and professional evolution for the couple.
As with their homes in Bel Air, New York City, and Malibu, the Hamptons estate reflects Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s signature approach to luxury while providing them with a quiet retreat away from the spotlight with their family.
