Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have purchased a new $60 million mega mansion in Beverly Hills. The property is located in the Wallingford Estates area and boasts five acres of land, 46,000 square feet of living space, 12 bedrooms, and 24 bathrooms. The mansion features a luxurious living room, dining room, and staircase, as well as an impressive backyard with a pool. For Ben, who is a sports enthusiast, the mansion includes an indoor sports complex with a basketball court, pickleball court, gym, boxing ring, and lounge.
The couple managed to score a great deal on the property, as it was originally listed for $135 million in 2018 but was relisted for $75 million before they purchased it for $60 million. Despite facing setbacks in their house hunting journey, Jennifer and Ben are enjoying their newlywed life.
