Jennifer Lopez has reportedly splashed out on a lavish New York penthouse – and it’s right next door to Chelsea Clinton!

She might still be Jenny from the Block but Jennifer Lopez sure has expensive tastes in what block she lives on!

New York real estate rumour has it that J Lo has purchased the penthouse suite in one of the city’s most exclusive apartment buildings – the Whitman building.

The building has only four residences – in one of which is Chelsea Clinton, the daughter of the former US President, Bill Clinton and current US Senator Hillary Clinton.

Chelsea, 34, recently welcomed her first child, daughter Charlotte, with her husband Marc Mezvinsky.

Hopefully the newborn’s cries won’t be keeping her neighbour J-Lo awake at night!

Although we suspect that J-Lo will be sleeping soundly as she enjoys the fanciest apartment in the building with over 6,540-square-foot of space, almost half of which is outdoor space across two levels – a rarity in the concrete jungle of the big apple.

The whole affair has apparently set her back over $25 million (US $22 million) and is jam-packed with luxury appointments including a fortress-like security system.

Jennifer Lopez has reportedly splashed out $25million on a lavish New York penthouse – and it’s right next door to Chelsea Clinton!

The Whitlam building where these two famous women will reside as neighbours, is one of the New York City’s most sought-after apartment buildings.

Part of the exclusivity is the fact that there are only four apartments in the building

J-Lo will be moving into the most luxurious of the four as well – the penthouse.

Jenny from the Block will have 6,540-square-foot of space to enjoy.

Part of the building’s appeal to such high-profile people is the fact that it has notably high security for such a boutique-style property, making it like a luxury fortress.

The penthouse has six and a half bathrooms.

All of the super-spacious bathrooms feature Italian marble slab.

There are four bedrooms – which may seem modest – but look at the size of them!

All of the apartments in the building have smart home systems that allow residents to control lights, music and heating from their iPhones or iPads.

There is also over 3,000 sq ft of outdoor space across two levels – a rarity in the concrete jungle of the big apple.

The apartment enjoys views across the greenery of Madison Square park.

There’s plenty of green on hand to entertain on too – a rare luxury in New York.

The building also has a private gym and key-locked elevators with private landings

The building is also smack-bang in the middle of Manhattan – you couldn’t ask for a better location!

Chelsea, 34, recently welcomed her first child to the world – daughter Charlotte, with her husband Marc Mezvinsky – hopefully the newborn’s cries won’t be keeping her neighbour J-Lo awake at night!
