Kimye on the hunt for 'bigger' house in NYC

Los Angeles - Kim Kardashian and Kanye West want a "bigger" home in New York City.

The 37-year-old rapper already owns a bachelor pad in Soho, but him and his wife are reportedly on the hunt for a larger property in the big apple as they want their 12-month-old daughter North to have her own bedroom.

A source told PEOPLE.com: "They need a bigger space with private parking."

The couple, who got married last month in Florence, Italy, sparked rumours last week they were looking to buy a plush pad on the East Coast after Kim, 33, was spotted viewing a $21m apartment on Lafayette Street with her half-sister Kendall, 18, and mother Kris Jenner, 58.

The brunette beauty also viewed a $17.25m town house in Greenwich Village, which boasts six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a secluded garden and private parking inside the building.

The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star then took Kendall and Kris to see a $13m penthouse, which comes with a stunning terrace and private pool.

Kim, Kanye and North are currently staying at Kris' home in Los Angeles while they wait for the renovations on their new Bel Air mansion to be completed.

The family were hoping to move into the property at the end of last year but, after a few electrical glitches, their moving date has been pushed back until later this year.
