For Taylor Swift, Cape Cod is so 2012. The country singer has reportedly dropped nearly $18 million for a new seaside mansion in the coastal village of Watch Hill, Rhode Island.
After being photographed house-hunting on April 15 in the exclusive area, which is part of the town of Westerly, the 23-year-old has purchased an eight-bedroom estate, with over 700 feet of shoreline, for $17.75 million, according to TMZ. The website reports the “I Knew You Were Trouble” singer paid cash for the transaction – and she seemed to get a decent deal, paying well under the $24 million asking price.
