Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s Beverly Hills home is still for sale after nearly four months on the market.
The 12-bedroom, 24-bathroom California home was publicly listed on July 11. They initially tried to sell it off-market in June, a common tactic of high-profile sellers to maintain privacy, but decided to list it a month later when they failed to find a buyer.
Affleck, 52, and Lopez, 55, bought the 38,000-square-foot estate in May 2023 for $60,805,000 less than a year after they tied the knot. The five-acre estate is currently listed for $68,000,000 and boasts a separate guest penthouse, a 12-car garage and an indoor sports complex with basketball and pileball courts, a gym and a boxing ring.

Although Affleck and Lopez agreed on the purchase together, each had some reservations about the house.
She liked its spacious layout, which had plenty of room to accommodate their blended family, but usually prefers a “romantic, Spanish, European vibe” over modern design, a source told PEOPLE at the time
For his part, Affleck has never been a fan of the home’s location, a significant drive from where his children live in the Brentwood area. “It was so painful and time-consuming for Ben to direct traffic from their house,” said another insider.
