The sale of Kanye West’s Malibu residence is making headlines, not just for its stunning aesthetics, but also because the rapper listed his beachfront property, designed by Tadao Ando, for an astounding $53 million before it was even completed.

West purchased the 4,000-square-foot home for a cool $57.3 million and embarked on an ambitious renovation project. Unfortunately, the home’s renovation remains incomplete, leaving the property without windows or electricity.

Kanye West general views of his Malibu hom

Despite the home’s unfinished state, it presents a unique opportunity for a bold buyer willing to finish Ye’s vision. However, the property has challenges, including an ongoing lawsuit with the previous remodel manager over creative differences.

The Malibu location, however, may prove irresistible to prospective buyers. The property is on a prime beachfront location, offering breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean. The Tadao Ando-designed home also boasts sleek and modern architecture, characteristic of the renowned Japanese architect.

While the property is currently in the hands of “Selling Sunset” star Jason Oppenheim, it remains to be seen who will take on the challenge of completing Kanye West’s Malibu masterpiece. Hopefully, the home will find an owner who appreciates and fulfills the rapper’s creative vision.
