Is Kim Kardashian facing a lawsuit as she builds an underground vault on her property? According to reports, one of Kardashian’s neighbours is taking legal action to prevent the reality star from renovating her multimillion-dollar mansion.
Kim Kardashian’s Alleged Renovations
According to a report from TMZ, one of Kim Kardashian’s neighbours, Sarah Key, has filed a restraining order against the Hidden Hills Community Association, of which they are both members. Apparently, the restraining order will effectively block Kardashian from building “an underground vault”, subterranean parking, an attached subterranean ‘wellness centre’ and a detached guardhouse.” Key also suspects Kardashian is planning to have two hills on her property flattened.
According to Key’s lawsuit, the primary concern with Kardashian’s renovations had to do with the two existing “high-pressure gas transmission lines.” Kardashian’s neighbour feared that her renovations would lead to “catastrophic bodily injury” as well as “irreparable real personal property damage” should those lines be breached. Kardashian’s side of the story is much different.
What is Kim Kardashian really renovating?
Kim Kardashian immediately came forward to deny the rumours following the leak of the suit to media outlets. While Kardashian said she is planning to build something on her property, everything is in accordance with the guidelines of the homeowner’s association. Kardashian hasn’t revealed exactly what she’s adding to her already massive mansion.
However, the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star assures that she’s not building an underground vault as her neighbour assumes. Despite Key’s fears that Kardahain’s renovations “may cause loss of a life,” it doesn’t appear that’s actually the case.
Looking Into Kim Kardashian’s Mansion
It’s hard to believe Kardashian is looking to add more to her house after the extensive renovations she and her estranged husband Kanye West already went through. Kim Kardashian purchased the property in 2014 for $20 million with West. The couple moved into the house after three years of renovations. Kris Jenner says the property is worth $60 million now, after all the renovations.
Despite their lavish lifestyle, Kardashian and West’s house apparently has a minimalist approach. The couple opened their doors to Architectural Digest in 2020 to reveal an all-white design with very little furniture and next to no decor. Although some people found the design style cold and scary, Kardashian and West didn’t seem to mind. Kardashian may be able to make changes if she wants. According to reports, Kardashian would receive the house if West’s divorce is finalized.
