Home Sweet Home
The musically-talented power couple reportedly put in a $120 million bid to call this 30,000-square-foot Bel Air mega-mansion their very own.
Exceptional Exterior
Architect Paul McClean designed the impressive property for a family keen on indoor-outdoor living. The home's massive glass panels that disappear into walls open up the entire floor plan to the front and backyard.
No Lifeguard on Duty
The Carter-Knowles clan will have four (count 'em: four!) different pools to choose from. There's even a rooftop pool, and a waterway lined with trees that meander around the property.
Stairway to Real Estate Haven
Looking back up at the estate from the pool deck you'd think you died and went to real estate heaven. So much travertine marble, so little time.
Moving On Up
There are multiple water features on the property, including a set of "floating trees" near the entry. McLean set out to build the house as if it was floating on water, which is part of his signature strategy to soften the often sharp lines and rectangular structures with a touch of nature.
Under Construction
And did we mention there's a helipad on the roof and an elevator in the center of the home? Other amenities include separate gaming and entertainment structures as well as a basketball court. Balling!
Wow Moment
There's no better way to reach the home's eight bedrooms and 11 bathrooms than by climbing this custom staircase.
Voila!
Made from an exotic piece of wood, butterflied and book-matched, the extraordinary staircase's stone steps are lined with soft, dark brown leather.
Classy
The sky was the limit with this property! Bey and Jay's main room boasts 30-40 foot ceilings and luxurious detailings.

Welcome to 2017

Running a Tight Ship
Consider this estate a "smart" home, utilizing the latest features in technology to deliver both convenience and safety. The alarm system is described as "intense," not to mention the bullet-proof windows.
Time to Cook
The kitchen cabinets were custom made in Italy and designed by the architect with contemporary living in mind.
State of the Art
Additionally, the kitchen touts two large islands overlooks the living area's incredible views. As for the appliances, Miele was enlisted for the state of the art fixtures.
One of a Kind
Each sink throughout the mansion was custom made from stone.
Rest and Relaxation
You'll never find two bathrooms that look the same in this home, as each boast a custom layout, stone tile work, Gessi faucets and fixtures from Italy and wall-mounted toilets that open, close and flush without being touched.
So Fresh and So Clean
As if one master bathroom wasn't enough, there are two each with a soaking tub and grand shower.
Finishing Touches
There's a black and white tiled backsplash in one of their many showers.
Break a Sweat
After working up a sweat in their property's fitness room, Beyoncé will feel rejuvenated after a visit to the marble steam room, shower and whirlpool that fits 12.
Modern and Majestic
Asymmetric sinks are all the rage these days, according to this A-list pairing.
Closets for Days
With a wardrobe as enviable as the "Halo" singer's, it's no wonder her closet is twice the size of Jay-Z's.
Not Your Average China Cabinet
While some would store family heirlooms or fine china, we expect Bey and Jay to house their hundreds and hundreds of awards in this glass case.
