TAYLOR SWIFT is splashing out more than £10million to build a private estate in one of the capital’s most exclusive areas, Biz on Sunday can reveal.
The American popstar’s North London mansion is set to have all the trimmings of luxury and will include a swimming pool alongside an orangery, according to planning documents.

The Shake If Off singer, who recently became a billionaire, snapped up the huge property, which used to belong to a politician, and currently has an army of tradespeople expanding and re-designing it to suit her needs.
Insiders say she plans to make it her permanent European base.
A source tells us: “It is no secret that Taylor loves London, and she has been looking for a base in the capital for a long time.
“She loves the culture and vibe of the city, and is particularly at home in North London, so this estate makes perfect sense.
“Her song London Boy was a love letter to the city as much as it was to a bloke, and that is why so many areas are mentioned in it.
“She is thrilled with this new property as it gives her roots here, but is taking her time to make sure it fits all her needs and is ultra secure.”
The singer, who is dating NFL star Travis Kelce, had lived in the capital with former flame Joe Alwyn, before their six-year relationship ended in April.
She and Joe shared a home in Crouch End before moving to Primrose Hill, where Taylor often hooked up with close pal Zoe Kravitz.
Taylor won’t be short of famous neighbours in the well-heeled area her new pad is set in. Stars nearby include Ricky Gervais, Liam Gallagher and Keira Knightley.
Plus if she wants to lay down new tracks, she will be close to the world-famous Abbey Road Studios — where The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Amy Winehouse and Adele have all recorded material.
Sounds like a match made in property heaven.
