Kim Kardashian drops $6.3M on home next door to her $60M LA mansion in order to ‘expand her compound’

, Kim, 41, purchased the new Hidden Hills pad, which is slap bang between her mega-mansion and the home of her baby daddy.

By the Kardashians’ standards, the house is relatively modest, featuring four bedrooms and three bathrooms.

But there’s nothing modest about the price tag, as Kim reportedly paid $6.3m for the pad, which was $800,000 over the asking price.

The house spans 4,230 square feet and sits on over one acre of land.

Given its location next to her own custom-built house, it’s possible that the new place could be used as a home-away-from-home for her boyfriend, Pete Davidson, 28.

Kim recently told her New York-based beau to get a place in LA as they try to make their bicoastal romance work.

However, the convenient location will more likely make for a good co-parenting base for Kim and 44-year-old Kanye.

The exes share North, eight, Saint, six, Chicago, four, and Psalm, three.

A source told The Post: “Kim and Kanye continue to co-parent their four children and as such buying the property around the main home for their kids one day falls in line with that shared goal.”

THROUGH THE KEYHOLE

Inside, the 1975-built house features a spacious formal living room.

An ornate spiral staircase with gold banisters leads up to the bedrooms, although Kim might want to do something about the green plush carpet.

It’s no surprise that the interiors are a little outdated, given that the house has only had one owner since it was built.

The home is likely to receive the SKIMS mogul’s signature aesthetic treatment.

THE EX NEXT DOOR

The purchase comes five months after rapper Kanye decided to buy a house right across the street from his ex-wife for $4.5m.

Ye paid over the asking price for the mansion, just two doors down from the house they once shared.

A source told  in late December 2021 that he bought the house in the hopes of staying close to his children.

As viewers of The Kardashians have learned, Kim and Kanye have remained dedicated to co-parenting their four kids in the face of their marriage breakdown, and Kanye’s beef with her new boyfriend Pete.

In March, she became legally single from the Yeezy designer, despite his attempts to win her back.

Meanwhile, Kanye is now dating Instagram model Chaney Jones.
