Earlier this month, Cardi B made a revelation about her new residence in the city of New York. The catch? It’s situated in New Jersey.
The artist, born and raised in New York, took to Instagram on November 2nd to inform her followers that she had acquired a newly constructed dwelling.
“In my current circumstances, I’m not tied to just one location; my work takes me all over. One certainty remained: I needed a place to call home in my beloved city of NY!” penned Cardi B, 29, in her post.
“My husband and I have always harbored the desire to possess a home in NY, and now we’ve expanded our collection of properties, which already includes residences in Atlanta and LA,” she elaborated.
“Now, with a residence in NY, I can frequently gather with my family! While I’ve achieved numerous milestones, I still sense that my aspirations are a distance away. Yet, this particular dream I can check off my list… If you’re interested, I could offer a brief virtual tour!”
However, the home is actually located in the suburban terrain of the Garden State, New Jersey, to be precise. By car, it’s around a 45-minute drive from Midtown Manhattan and approximately 25 minutes from Washington Heights, where she spent her early days.
On September 17th, Cardi B concluded the purchase of the house for $5.85M, as evidenced by property records. Sources indicate that she is investing over $1 million in renovations.
The primary residence boasts nine bedrooms and nine bathrooms, supplemented by additional bedrooms within the guesthouse.
Encompassing a substantial 13,000 square feet, the gated estate occupies nearly two acres of land and boasts an exhaustive array of amenities.
Highlights of the residence comprise 10-foot-high ceilings, a cinema hall, a wine cellar under climate control, a fitness center, a powder room, and a wet bar.
The estate also flaunts a saltwater pool, a tennis court, and a cabana, complete with a comprehensive outdoor kitchen. Moreover, the property is outfitted with an advanced home security system.
The indoors feature an elevator, a gourmet kitchen accompanied by a breakfast area, and a generously proportioned dining room. There’s also a capacious great room, a library, and an office — collectively showcasing six fireplaces.
The main bedroom suite is complemented by dual bathrooms and spacious walk-in closets.
This new abode materialized after the “WAP” rapper and her spouse, Offset, greeted their second child, a baby boy, in early September.
The couple is also parents to a 3-year-old daughter named Kulture.
Meanwhile, Offset, in the previous month, procured an investment property in the Dominican Republic as a birthday gift for his wife.
