Ben Affleck Sells East Coast–Style Pacific Palisades Mansion

After only three weeks on the market, Ben Affleck’s $29.995 million Pacific Palisades residence has gone under contract. According to Mansion Global, a final price and the purchaser are unknown, as that information has not yet been made public.

Affleck bought the massive tri-level, 13,000-plus-square-foot new-build back in 2018 for $19.25 million. The property is located about one mile from the former abode he once shared with ex-wife Jennifer Garner and their children, which must have made shuttling the kids from parent to parent fairly easy.

The over half-acre gated property sits across from the reputed Riviera Country Club, snuggly tucked behind tall vegetation. With its whitewashed brick, black shutters, columned front porch, and hipped roof, the facade’s design inspiration comes courtesy of an East Coast aesthetic. Interiors however, are open and facilitate indoor-outdoor living which is a signature highlight of many California homes.

On the ground floor, glass doors in the family room open up to a covered patio complete with a fireplace, flatscreen tv, and sitting areas for lounging and eating. An outdoor kitchen facilitates open air cooking and is positioned across from the property’s guest house, and pool and spa.Other luxe amenities in the seven-bedroom, nine-bathroom manse include a wellness room, theater, rec room with full bar, a gym, and wine cellar.

Affleck wed Jennifer Lopez last month after a broken engagement that spanned almost twenty years. The couple were once again engaged in April of this year and by July had eloped at Las Vegas’s Little White Chapel. ‘Bennifer’ then celebrated their marriage with a huge, splashy weekend-long ceremony and reception in August at Affleck’s Hampton Island Preserve estate located in Riceboro, Georgia, where all guests were required to wear white and Lopez donned Ralph Lauren gowns. Latest reports are that the newlyweds will be moving to Lopez’s Bel-Air compound after extensive renovations are completed.
