Jay Z and Beyonce could be close to setting up shop on the west coast – after reportedly taking multiple visits to a ridiculously-expensive $85 million Beverly Hills estate home.

TMZ reports that ‘While they were living in L.A. over the summer they checked out a brand new 23,000 square foot Cliffside palace twice.’ In addition to panoramic views of Malibu and downtown L.A., the 8-bedroom, 15-bathroom house features an attached 16-car garage, infinity pool, wine cellar, and a 24-seat movie theatre.

What’s more, the couple – who reportedly boasts a net worth in excess of $1 billion – would be able to take a relaxing dip in the abode’s infinity pool after a hard day in the recording studio.

Jay and Bey got a taste of L.A. life this summer while leasing a mansion in exclusive Holmby Hills for a whopping $200,000/month! The mortgage on the Bev Hills crib would likely cost them way more than that.
