Beyonce and husband Jay-Z are in the final stages of buying what will be an £18million property in the Cotswolds, not far from Jeremy Clarkson and the Beckhams
Beyonce and Jay-Z are set to splash out on a mega £18million estate near Jeremy Clarkson. The showbiz couple are in the final stages of owning 58 acres in the star-studded village in the Cotswolds.
The village of Wiggington is near the Clarkson’s Farm presenter and the Beckhams. And the land has clinched planning permission for a “spectacular rural estate”.
Property consultant Owain Jones said the guide price was £7.5m but when the gaff has been built it’s set to “be worth north of £18m”.
He added: “The appeal is self-evident: absolute seclusion balanced with seamless access to a curated lifestyle.
“This location places you at the heart of the Cotswolds’ most refined community. It is the complete package, land, lifestyle, and legacy in a form that almost never reaches the market.”
Architectural designs show the mansion could boast seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms and rooms overlooking a lake.
“The area is fast becoming the Hamptons of the UK and there’s a reason for it,” Jones added.
The couple’s first look at the land outside Wigginton was earlier this summer during a break from Queen B’s megabucks Cowboy Carter tour.
But locals are worried about the attention the power couple will bring.
A bar worker said: “We love our local clientele and we don’t want the couple’s arrival to bring in a different sort.”
And local Thomas Winter, 30, said: “The prices of everything have gone up a lot and people tend to stick another two zeros on to things such as fixing fencing or walls just because of where we live.
“If I wanted to buy a larger property around here then I wouldn’t be able to afford it as these celebrities have priced me out.”
But another resident said the Crazy in Love singer, 44, would be a “great addition” and they were looking forward to seeing her at the village fete.
