MUMBAI: Singer Beyonce and her husband and rapper Jay Z are reportedly planning to buy a 123-room mansion to accommodate their growing family.

The couple, who have five-year-old daughter Blue Ivy together, earlier announced that they are expecting twins, and as part of their preparations for the new arrival, they secretly viewed an 85 million pounds Hollywood abode belonging to heiress Petra Stunt and her businessman husband James Stunt earlier this month, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"Beyonce and Jay Z are actively hunting for a house, something they can settle in for the next decade or so, and Petra's place seems to be very appealing to them," a source told The Sun newspaper.

"They were shown around two weeks ago and are thinking about whether it works for them. They know with their expanding brood it's time to get serious about laying some roots, and having a statement pad in Hollywood is at the top of their list.

"They loved the space and the size, they just need to work out if it's the right fit for the future," the source added.
