Amidst the excitement, some fans couldn't help but wonder about Ben Affleck's absence. Questions arose about why he was not there to celebrate the milestone with his wife. As the couple approaches their first anniversary, having tied the knot in a surprise Vegas wedding on July 16, 2022, they have been actively searching for their dream home.
According to reports, the couple acquired a mansion developed by Gala Asher in the Los Angeles mountains above Beverly Hills, reportedly worth nearly $61 million.
The transaction was completed within a week, with the couple negotiating nearly $15 million below the initial asking price of $75 million. The property, known as the 'Wallingford estate,' sits on a sprawling 5-acre promontory and boasts an impressive 12 bedrooms and 24 bathrooms.
The mansion, recently reconstructed and expanded, offers lavish amenities including a 12-car garage capable of accommodating up to 80 vehicles. It also features an indoor sports complex, a 5,000 square-foot guest penthouse, a caretaker's house, and a two-bedroom guardhouse.
Jennifer can indulge in a full gym, basketball and pickleball courts, and a boxing ring within the indoor sports facility. Other highlights include a sports lounge, a bar, a full-service hair and nail salon, a home theater, a wine cellar, a whiskey lounge, and sauna and massage rooms.
An infinity edge pool graces the property, providing picturesque views of the surroundings. Accessible through two private gated entrances, the mansion exudes privacy and luxury. The couple was represented by Brett Lawyer, known for working with celebrities like Katy Perry and Madonna, during the sale. Ginger Glass from Compass represented the seller.
Recently, the couple's new home was a hive of activity as furniture was transported and arranged on the premises. With several vehicles parked outside and rugs, flowers, and furnishings being unloaded, the house was taking shape. The couple, affectionately referred to as 'Bennifer,' had previously withdrawn from escrow on three properties before finding their ideal home.
Where are JLo's other homes?
During their search, they considered a $64 million mansion in Pacific Palisades, which they ultimately decided against for undisclosed reasons. They also explored a $34.5 million property in the same area. In the meantime, they found comfort in Australian billionaire James Packer's $60 million Beverly Hills mansion, which they rented. Jennifer also had her stunning Bel Air mansion, complete with a downstairs pub and a 30-seat screening room, where they resided.
Currently, Jennifer's Bel Air mansion is listed for sale at a staggering $42 million. The property boasts a library, an infinity pool, a separate guest house, an outdoor bar area with a barbecue, and even an amphitheatre that can accommodate 100 people, perfect for impromptu performances by J.Lo and her talented daughter Emme.
Meanwhile, Ben owns a lavish mansion in Savannah, Georgia, where the couple held their wedding ceremony after their spontaneous Las Vegas celebration surrounded by loved ones.
