Where does Beyoncé and Jay-Z's new house rank on the list of the most expensive homes in the USA?

According to TMZ, Beyoncé and Jay-Z have purchased a 30,000 square foot home in Malibu, California, spending a staggering $200 million in cash. This house, located on an exclusive stretch of Pacific Coast Highway, has now become the most expensive residential property ever bought in California and the entire United States. Real estate expert Jonathan Miller notes that this is an extraordinarily expensive purchase.

While that figure seems huge, it's not the most expensive residential real estate deal in the United States.

A list of the 10 most expensive homes ever sold in the USA:

• Chartwell Mansion – $150 million
• The house, previously owned by Rash Limbaugh – $155 million
• Warner Estate mansion – $165 million

One such home is the Chartwell Mansion, which was sold for $150 million. Called the "Beverly Hillbilly House," this mansion is known for its charm of an authentic French neoclassical chateau and 10 acres of land.

It is worth noting that the house previously owned by Rashid Limbo (which sold for $155 million) and the Warner Estate mansion for $165 million were also part of the list. At the top of the list in terms of price is the mansion located at 27712 Pacific Coast Highway, which became the property of Beyoncé and Jay-Z for $200 million.
