Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are getting ready to play house in a big way.

The expectant parents have purchased a Bel Air, Calif., mansion for $11 million, WHO has confirmed after the real estate deal was first reported by TMZ.

"It's so exciting for them," says a source. "The house is gorgeous. And they really wanted and needed the privacy."

The Italian-style villa will include a gym, movie theater, hair and makeup salon, bowling alley, basketball court and indoor and outdoor pools.

Their joint purchase opens with a grand, two-story entrance with black walnut parquet floors and leads to a living room with cathedral-height ceilings and stone fireplace. A gourmet custom kitchen opens to the back yard, which holds an outdoor living area with a barbecue. The master suite has an enormous bath, a closet big enough for the fashion-loving pair, a sitting area and balcony.
