In 2022, Grammy Award-nominated musician Nicki Minaj spent a stunning $19.5 million for a large contemporary farmhouse in the Hidden Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles’ San Fernando Valley.

After years of renting homes in Beverly Hills and Malibu, the award-winning rapper has finally acquired her own house to settle down with her two-year-old kid and husband Kenny Petty.

The major purchаse occurred only a few weeks after Minaj turned 40, making it the ideal birthday present for the Anaconda hitmaker.

The house was really placed for sale on December 7, 2022, the day before Nicki’s birthday on December 8. The acquisition had already concluded a little more than a week later, according to public documents, with the transaction taking place on December 16. This means the rapper received a $19.5 million birthday present on her 40th birthday.

According to Dirt.com, Nicki Minaj’s new home is in the foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains, a location famed for its quiet, rural vibe while being only a short drive from Los Angeles.

Hidden Hills was formerly a tranquil, Kentucky-style town full of horse farms, but the neighborhood’s Ferraris and Lamborghinis have likely exceeded its horses.

This is because it has recently become popular among professional sportsmen, singers, and celebrities seeking residential peace and quiet. Madonna, Sylvester Stallone, Jessica Simpson, Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, Lori Loughlin, Ben Simmons, Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, and the majority of the Los Angeles Rams’ current squad have all visited the San Fernando Valley region. 

Lil Wayne, who discovered the pop sensation and signed her to his Young Money label in the late 2000s, also relocated to Hidden Hills in 2021, when he spent $15 million on his own property.

The home of Nicki Minaj, a 12,000-square-foot contemporary farmhouse

According to the realtor’s statements, the large contemporary farmhouse, built in recent years by a local developer, was sold before it was publically listed on the MLS. This makes images and specifics of Nicki Minaj’s home difficult to find, although tax documents reveаl that the almost 12,000-square-foot home includes eight bedrooms, nine full bathrooms, and two powder rooms.

The pocketing glass doors in the main home make the space appear bigger and let more light into the rooms. These doors open into a variety of patios and terraces. The upstairs master suite has its own private terrace with magnificent views of the backyard.

There is a separate guesthouse in the backyard of the new home for hosting guests and family. There is also a spa and poolside cabana where the celebrity may seek shade while relaxing by her saltwater pool. The stunning and elegant pool is completed with a Baja shelf great for sunbathing, lounging, or playing with the celebrity and her young family, friends, and loved ones. The acre-plus level site contains a three-car garage, lush lawns, and considerable landscaping, creating a very beautiful architectural feature for solitude. 

Nicki has always liked to reside in large homes

The rapper from Trinidad and Tobago likes big houses. She paid for the pair to reside in a $35,000-per-month Beverly Hills house when she was dating Meek Mill. It was a 10,340-square-foot mansion with eight bedrooms and ten bathrooms in an exclusive gated neighborhood.

While we anticipate them to relocate soon, the pop sensation and her husband, Kenneth Petty, are presently residing in a rented home in the City of Calabasas, which you can see in the video below:

The Mediterranean-inspired edifice, completed in the 1990s, includes six bedrooms and nine bathrooms, as well as opulent, fashionable, and attractive marble flooring throughout. The rapper from Trinidad and Tobago likes big houses.

New home, new music, and exciting new projects on the way too

In addition to purchasing her first home, the singer who released her debut studio album Pink Friday in 2010 announced that she is working on her fifth album.

She says it will take fans back to where it all began — gritty bars and underground MC-type vibes that her Barbz fans have grown to know and love. “I feel like whenever I’m happy, I deliver the best music,” Nicki said recently. “And to deliver the best music for my upcoming album, I need to reconnect with the essence of Hip Hop.”

The rapper has also teased other exciting projects that include an upcoming nail art company and getting back into the TV and film industry. Looks like the generous singer-songwriter is going to be quite busy soon and we’re looking forward to it all.
