The 24-year-old singer has reportedly splashed out to live in a £10 million Los Angeles mansion for six months, as well as a nearby four-bedroom property for ex-lover Briana Jungwirth, who gave birth to his first son on Friday (22.01.16).
A source said: "Right from the pregnancy announcement, Louis has told friends and family he wants to be hands-on with his son, which is why he's moving out to LA for now."
The One Direction hunk's five-bedroom property will allow plenty of room for Louis' relatives to visit, while Briana will also have space for her own family members to live with her.
The source added to the Daily Mirror newspaper: "His mum and other family members are also coming over to help out and he has been searching for houses that will have all the creature comforts in a really good neighbourhood.
"The five-bed property he has chosen - and the house for Briana and her family - are perfect for them to bring up the baby together, even if they are no longer in a romantic relationship.
"Louis is starting as he means to go on. He really is determined to be the best dad possible and work alongside Briana to create a great family life for their son."
Louis - who is now dating Danielle Campbell - is said to currently be staying with friends in Los Angeles while he gets ready to move into his US home.
It has been reported he and Briana have named their son Sydney Rain, though that is still to be confirmed.
