Kendall Jenner has bought a luxurious Los Angeles condo for $1.39 million.
The 18-year-old model has splashed out the big sum on the two-bedroom apartment which is located in a high-rise building near Westwood.
The property boasts a panoramic view of Los Angeles and has two-and-a-half bathrooms, while the building has 24-hour valet parking, a gym for residents, wine cellar, heated pool, and concierge and doorman service.
Although 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star Kendall is the daughter of Kris Jenner and Bruce Jenner and has enjoyed a lavish lifestyle her entire life, the teen star has purchased the condo herself.
According to TMZ.com, Kendall took out a $910,000 mortgage on the property, and although her mother Kris is listed in documents for the purchase she did not put in any cash.
Kendall acted as a bridesmaid at her half-sister Kim Kardashian's wedding to Kanye West at Forte di Belvedere in Florence, Italy, on Saturday (24.05.14).
The other bridesmaids were Kendall's sister Kylie Jenner, 16, and half-siblings Kourtney Kardashian, 35, Khloé Kardashian, 29, while Bruce walked his stepdaughter Kim, 33, down the aisle.
The newlyweds are now enjoying their Honeymoon in Cork, Ireland.

Sir Paul McCartney has been released from hospital.
The 71-year-old musician was discharged by doctors last night (26.05.14) after spending almost a week recovering from a mystery virus at St Luke's International Hospital in Tokyo, Japan.
The Beatles legend, who was forced to cancel the Asian leg of his 'Out There!' world tour, was excited about being reunited with his family as he boarded a private jet heading back home.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Paul has really been through the mill. He was desperately sad he had to cancel those shows but he was really poorly. But he is on the mend which is great news."
Paul's wife Nancy Shevell, 53, was by his bedside throughout the six days he spent in hospital.
The 'Hey Jude' singer is disappointed about having to cancel five concerts in Japan and South Korea since he hates letting his fans down.
Paul wrote in a statement on his website last week: "I'm so very touched. Unfortunately my condition has not improved overnight.
"I was really hoping that I'd be feeling better today. I'm so disappointed and sorry to be letting my fans down."
The US leg of Paul's tour will go ahead as planned on June 14.

David Schwimmer helped police officers solve a stabbing.
The former 'Friends' star aided officials in investigating a dramatic robbery gone wrong that took place next door to his $4 million home in New York's East Village on Monday morning (26.05.14) by allowing them to review footage captured by his security cameras.
The cameras caught the end of an altercation between David's 26-year-old male neighbour, a transgender prostitute the man had solicited and robber Robert Rainey, 21, who allegedly broke into the man's home and attempted to steal his laptop.
According to the New York Daily News, the 26-year-old man was having sex with the prostitute in his bathroom - which adjoins David's apartment - when he heard an intruder in his house. The affray spilled outside when the man chased the thief with a box cutter, but Rainey managed to wrestle it away from him and slashed the man across the face.
An onlooker said: "It started inside and spilled out into the street. There was blood everywhere."
Another eyewitness heard the victim shout, "He sliced me up!", reports the New York Post newspaper.
In a bizarre twist, it's claimed the prostitute may have been in cahoots with the robber and pepper-sprayed her client before running away.
Officers noticed David, 47, had cameras outside his home and the actor - famous for playing Ross Gellar - was happy to accommodate them by allowing them to view the footage to build a case against Rainey.
The thief was detained and charged with robbery, assault and criminal possession of stolen property.

A syringe used by Peaches Geldof to inject heroin before she died was found in a drawer at her home.
The needle was discovered by police who searched the late socialite's house in Wrotham, Kent, where she was found dead seven weeks ago and it was reportedly moved because it was too "harrowing" for the family to see.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "The needle is believed to have been moved from the bed where her body was found and put in a drawer.
"This was not a cover-up. It was apparently done because it was such a harrowing thing to see and there were young children in the house."
When police first arrived at the property there was no sign of drugs or drug paraphernalia but officers insist Peaches' husband Thomas Cohen, 23, is "not in any way under suspicion."
The source also said analysis of a laptop Peaches, 25, was using at the time of her death suggests she passed away at about 11am on April 7 at the home the couple shared with their two sons Astala, two, and Phaedra, one.
An inquest found that heroin was "likely" to have played a role in the blonde beauty's death - the same drug that killed Peaches' mother Paula Yates in 2000 - and a full inquest is due to take place in July.
Meanwhile, Peaches' father, Bob Geldof, performed his first gig at the weekend since his daughter's death with his band, The Boomtown Rats.
The grieving singer made no mention of his daughter during their set at Volkfest in Plymouth but fans claim he put on a "remarkable show".

Kieran Hayler has written a letter to Katie Price's former best friend dismissing their affair as just a "dirty, sleazy sh*g."
The builder and part time stripper, who has admitted sleeping with married Jane Pountney, 49, is still desperate to win back his pregnant wife Katie, and insists he is seeking help at a rehab clinic for a compulsive addiction.
In a letter seen by The Sun newspaper, Kieran tells Jane: "I told you everything you wanted to hear so I could sleep with you.
"And that's all it was, a dirty, sleazy sh*g to feed an addiction that I am ashamed to say I have. But I am going to get help because I love Kate with all my heart and I do not want to lose her and I want us to be stronger than ever once this all passes."
He continues: "I was never ever going to leave Kate for you. I am so glad we got caught because now I can get help and I can start a new fresh life with Katie with good people in our life and positive future."
The 27 year old claims he wrote the letter during £2,500-a-day rehab sessions, which he started last week, and he insists having therapy has helped him to realise he has a "compulsive addiction."
Kieran is still hopeful he can repair Katie's broken heart and save their marriage, after tying the knot last year, for the sake of their nine-month-old son Jett, as well as Katie's children from past relationships, Harvey, 12, Junior, eight, and Princess, six.
But Katie, 36, has slammed her husband and Jane again on Twitter, after reading Kieran's tell-all interview, in which he revealed the pair had unprotected sex in Katie's stables and on a family holiday during their seven-month affair.
Katie posted: "@Kieran0322 and jane pountney the w**** were f****** all through France they have been f******* in my house the whole time even when I was home (sic).
"@Kieran0322 has confessed this today they are both lying cheating ****s (sic)."

Christina Aguilera is sticking to a healthy diet during her second pregnancy.
'The Voice' USA coach reportedly gained 40 pounds while expecting her child Max - her six-year-old son with ex-husband Jordan Bratman - and is determined not to put on as much weight carrying this baby, her first baby with her fiancé Matthew Rutler.
A source told Life and Style Weekly magazine: "She is making much better choices and is adamant about staying healthy. She's telling everyone how vibrant and connected to her body she feels."
Christina had shed a lot of weight before getting pregnant and has so far been able to carry on with her healthy eating regime relatively easily.
Her man Matthew has also been doting on his pop star partner and getting her whatever she needs.
The insider added: "He's doting on her night and day and never leaves her side. He talks to the baby through her stomach - it's so cute."
One food Christina, 33, has developed an appetite for is blackened barbecued meats, a common craving among expectant ladies.
A source previously said: "The other day, she went nuts for a plate of blackened BBQ. She laughs about it, but she was also relieved when she found out this craving isn't all that strange."

Hilary Duff and Mike Comrie are trying to co-parent "peacefully."
The 26-year-old actress, who recently hinted she is trying to work things out with her husband after they announced their separation in January, insists they are putting their two-year-old son Luca's needs first.
Talking to Us Weekly magazine, she said: "We're really good friends and spend a lot of time together. We're just trying to figure out what makes us happy, but we have Luca as our priority. We're going to do it in the most peaceful way."
Meanwhile, Hilary says their two-year-old is keeping them on their toes.
She explained: "Luca's two, so he has a strong personality. He's spirited. That's a good word for him.
"He's talking a lot and trying to put words together, which is a big deal. But sometimes he does test me. I have a toddler bed on order, but he's already jumping out of his crib! I hear a thud and I'm like, OK, he tossed himself out. He's so funny. I say, 'What are you doing?' And he's trying not to smile because he knows it's kind of naughty.
"He opened his own door recently - I couldn't believe it."

George Clooney may wed at the country house where 'Downton Abbey' is filmed.
The 'Oceans Eleven' star whisked his fiancée Amal Alamuddin away for a romantic break in the English countryside this week, which took in Highclere Castle near London - where the period drama is filmed - and she was so taken by it, they made enquiries as to whether it could be used for their wedding.
A source told MailOnline.com: "George became close friends with Hugh Bonneville, who plays Lord Robert Crawley, when they did 'The Monuments Men' together last year.
"And they really hit it off. He contacted Hugh and asked him to arrange a private tour of the castle. Amal was blown away.
"When he saw his bride-to-be's reaction to the spectacular Victorian castle, set on 1,000 acres of parkland, he began making some discrete inquires about having their wedding performed there.
"And he was told they would be most happy to accommodate them."
Highclere is thought to be a good venue for the wedding as it is close to London and also to Heathrow airport, meaning George's family from America can easily fly, as can Amal's extended family who live in Dubai and Lebanon.
The castle is currently inhabited by the 8th Lord and Lady Carnarvon and their family and allows weddings, with prices to hire parts of the castle starting at $23,000 for a day.
The source added: "George loves the idea of marrying at the castle, because it's a glamorous place he could secure... Amal's Middle Eastern relatives would most certainly enjoy the exhibition, and the tour would make for a most memorable wedding."
Other venues the couple are said to be considering for the wedding are George's home in Lake Como, Italy, and Cabo San Lucas in Mexico, but it is thought Amal wants to be near where she grew up in the UK.
Another source said: "Amal grew up in London, and attended school in Buckinghamshire. "And she went to University at Oxford. She currently works in London so she has many close British friends."

Freida Pinto has an "obscene" number of shoes.
The 'Slumdog Millionaire' beauty admits to an obsession with footwear and has so many different pairs she can't count them all.
She told Harper's Bazaar Arabia: "They're my biggest obsession but I don't even know how many I have.
"It's a bit obscene for me, but I'm sure there are people that have way more.
"It's really weird though, because my love for shoes isn't because I want to wear them all. I mean, there are only so many days in the year, so it's impossible to wear all of them, but I have them because they're so beautiful, like works of art, and I love looking at them."
The Indian starlet and model was plucked from obscurity to win a lead role in Danny Boyle's 'Slumdog Millionaire', which went on to win eight Oscars, although she says she doesn't always feel pretty.
She said: "I was at an event with [model] Karlie Kloss last year and it was horrible standing next to her. She's a beautiful lady and I felt like a little ant."
Freida also says she felt like a star for the first time when she was dressed for the the premiere of her most famous film by Chanel.
She added: "It was amazing that the brand believed in me, and I felt very, very lucky. If you wear Chanel to a premiere, you feel like you've kinda made it."
Alongside Freida, another notable collector of shoes is Imelda Marcos, the former Philippine fist lady, who at one point had a collection numbering 3,000 pairs.
