The Fate of the Spacious 12-Bedroom House Ben Affleck and JLo Purchased During Their Brief Union
After initially listing their 38,000-square-foot Beverly Hills mansion for a staggering $68 million in July 2024, Hollywood power couple Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez have decided to take the property off the market. Despite a significant price reduction to approximately $60 million in May 2025, the house has remained difficult to sell, earning the nickname "white elephant" from real estate sources due to its large size and unique features.
The mansion boasts an impressive array of amenities, including 12 bedrooms, 24 bathrooms, a sports lounge, gym, boxing ring, basketball and pickleball courts, a 12-car garage, caretaker and guardhouses, and a guest penthouse. Despite the challenges in selling the property, sources close to the A-listers believe they have thought things through and are avoiding a financial loss by keeping the property off the market temporarily.
Lopez is reportedly still living in the mansion while her new Hidden Hills home is under renovation. Affleck and Lopez, who bought the property for $60 million after their marriage, continue to share the property and manage it carefully amid their separation. The public continues to follow the complications of their split, but the actors' careers are thriving, helping them financially.
Both Affleck and Lopez have several projects on the 2025 movie release list, which should aid them in paying bills for their former home. An anonymous insider close to the A-listers spoke to People about the situation, confirming that the couple is still able to make business decisions together despite being separated for a year.
The insider also revealed that the A-listers are planning to keep their property until they can get a sum close to their original $68 million asking price. The mansion might eventually find a new owner, possibly another celebrity. In the meantime, the couple continues to co-parent their kids despite their divorce being finalized in January.
As the A-listers navigate their personal and professional lives, their former home remains a significant asset. With its extensive amenities and prime location, the mansion continues to hold potential for a lucrative sale in the future. For now, the property remains off the market, waiting for the right buyer to come along.
