Kanye West purchased a single-story property just across the street two months after Kim Kardashian formally put the marital residence entirely under her name, as The Post can confirm.
And it seems he was so anxious to get the modest five-bedroom, four-bathroom home that he paid $4.5 million, which was $421,000 more than the seller had requested.
The rapper is also in for a lucky break, as the five-bedroom, four-bathroom Hidden Hills home went up for sale for $4.079 million on December 1st, its first time on the market in 67 years.
According to documents, West, 44, closed on the house on December 20 under the LLC Spruce Blue Trust.
Additionally, a source informed The Post that although the “Donda” singer has stated a desire to “get his family back together,” the primary purpose of the property deal was to benefit the children of the former spouse.
“It’s just simple logistics so that he is close to his children and has access to them at the drop of a hat,” the insider said.
But it looks like the home will be in need of some upgrades, as it appears to be a far cry from what the Kardashian-West clan are used to.

The unassuming home spans over 3,600 square feet and is situated on over an acre of land with an equestrian ranch on the property.
The property has shaggy beige carpets with vintage wood paneling and cabinets throughout the home.
15 family rooms with a fireplace and sliding doors that look out over the pool and horse corral. The home also comes with a two-car detached garage with a guest unit that leads along a path to the three-stall barn, the listing states. The barn comes with a tack room and hay storage connected to a large paddock for horses.
The same owners lived in the home ever since the property, which has been well-maintained, was built in 1955.
The front lawn was recently replaced with a drought-resistant AstroTurf and the existing kitchen was remodeled in 2005 and includes an island.
