She is probably the most generous daughter in the world.
Just four months after shelling out $1.4million on a new home for her parents Taylor Swift has dished out a further $2.5million on a new mansion.
The country singer, aged just 21-years-old has bought the prime piece of real estate in a very exclusive area in Nashville.
Her parents Andrea Gardner and Scott Kingsley Swift will be the newest residents in the area and will become neighbours to the likes of Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban.
The sprawling abode boasts more than 5,600 square feet of luxury living set in nearly six acres of lush landscaped hillside.
The home also boasts a spacious pool house which covers 2,000 square feet, state of the art appliances with a luxury finish.
The historic Northumberland Estate was built in 1934 by U.S. ambassador to Denmark Guilford Dudley Jr. and the property was previously owned by Universal Music Group chairman Luke Lewis, According to On The Red Carpet.com
But given her hefty earning power the mansion certainly wont make a dent in her bank balance as Forbes listed her as 2011’s 7th most powerful celebrity with earnings of $45million.
Still the generous gesture from Taylor comes just months after she dropped nearly one and a half million dollars on a home for Andrea and Scott in April.
Despite her young years Miss Swift is building quite the prime property portfolio and has homes in L.A. and another property in the Nashville area.
And Taylor isn’t just generous with her family and last week the singer treated her back up singers and dancers to a three-day trip to Charleston in South Carolina.
Taking a break from her hectic tour schedule, she has been hitting the stage all over the world since February, Taylor and her friends enjoyed a few peaceful days by the beach make the most of the sun, sea and sand.
In the fun and chic black and white shots, Taylor and her friends spend time at the beach and aboard a yacht in the historic and upmarket seaside community.
One of the shots shows the singer, surrounded by the girls, lounging on the back seating area of a boat which they rented for the day.
The girls all then posed for a series of fun group shots as the yacht cruised the shoreline.Taylor showed off her long and lean figure in a cute vintage mini dress which she paired with a spotted headscarf and retro sunglasses for the outing
To accompany the pictures, Taylor wrote a friendly blog post to her fans explaining why she took the trip and why she decided to share the pictures.
‘Here are two things you may already/might not know about me,’ the singer wrote.
‘One is that I make lists. Lists of music I love, lists of life goals (I’ve done that since I was eight years old), lists of things I need to get done this week, and… Lists of places I’ve always dreamed of going.’
‘Thanks to you all and your wonderful niceness, I’ve gotten to see most of the places on my list on tour.’
‘We’ve been on the Speak Now Tour since February, and it occurred to me a few weeks ago that it would be so incredible to take a mini-vacation!’
‘I found a three day window in August and invited all the girls you see onstage (one fiddle player, one backup singer, two dancers, three aerialists) to go with me to one of the places on my list (this particular place was underlined, with stars drawn next to it, indicating that I reeeeally wanted to go there): Charleston, South Carolina,’ Taylor revealed.
Which brings me to the second thing you might not know about me: I’m a girl of many phases,’ she added.
‘Sometimes I work out, sometimes I don’t, sometimes I listen to music constantly, sometimes I become obsessed with a piece of advice I’m given, sometimes I want to do nothing but watch Friends marathons, sometimes I write in my journal every night, then I’ll skip a month.’
‘And sometimes I take lots of pictures of what’s going on in my life. For these three days, that’s what I did.’
‘And because your niceness is why I get to take vacations, I thought I’d share them with you.’
This singer is now in Los Angeles where she is continuing her tour with four concerts in the West Coast city.
On Sunday night she will miss the MTV Video Music Awards due to her final Los Angeles date despite the fact she has been nominated for Best Video With A Message for her song Mean.
The US leg of the tour continues through the end of November before she heads down to Australia and New Zealand in March.
