Taylor Swift became a billionaire in 2024 thanks to the success of her sell-out Eras Tour making her the richest female musician in the world after she netted over $2 billion for 125 shows.
Even before her billionaire status, Taylor had a sizeable fortune and decided to invest an estimated $150 million in real estate with properties in New York, Nashville, and Los Angeles, to name a few.
And according to reports, Taylor is making some big changes to her $17.75 million Rhode Island mansion after seeking a permit in 2025.
In 2013, when she was still just 24, Taylor paid in cash for a 12,000-square-foot beachfront mansion dubbed 'Watch Hill House' in the affluent town of Westerly in Rhode Island.
The home's views are a real spectacle reaching out 700m from the shoreline. The property also features seven bedrooms, eight fireplaces, and a stunning swimming pool.
According to a permit acquired by The Providence Journal, Taylor is set to add a whole new wing to her holiday home, including extra bedrooms and bathrooms, as well as a kitchen renovation, with the work estimated to cost up to $1.7 million.

The savvy star combined the two properties to create one huge penthouse with 8,309 square feet of living space, 10 bedrooms, and 10 bathrooms. In 2015, Taylor bought an $18 million townhouse next door, and in 2018 she added to her impressive Manhattan real estate portfolio by purchasing another apartment in the same building for $9.75 million. Phew!
