Jennifer Lopez Lists Bel-Air Estate with Private Lake and Sandy Beach for Over $40 Million

Nine-bedroom, 14,000 square foot mansion sits on 8 acres of land in Bel Air

By Dolores Quintana

Actress, dancer and singer Jennifer Lopez has now listed her Bel-Air home for sale six months after her marriage to actor/director Ben Affleck as reported by Mansion Global.com. Lopez is asking $42.5 million for the mansion which has its own private lake with a sand beach. According to the Carolwood Estates, listing, the home has nine bedrooms, a guest cottage, a pool, a putting green, a pagoda with a fire pit, and an outdoor amphitheater that seats 100. Sitting on 14,000 square feet of living space the entire estate covers eight acres in Bel-Air. 

Actress Sela Ward and her husband Howard Sherman sold the home to Lopez in 2016 for $28 million according to city records. The estate is made of stone and wood and is partly decorated in the French Country style. It also has a gym, formal dining room, home theater and game room with its own billiards table. The movie theater is decorated with posters from films that Lopez and Affleck have starred in like Affleck’s “Hollywoodland”, Lopez’s “Monster-in-Law” and the biographical film that Lopez starred in with her ex-husband singer Marc Antony, “El Cantante”. 

The kitchen has an eat-in dining island in its center, a chandelier, and wood beam ceilings with a dining nook that comes with casement windows for a view during your meal and a wall made of stone. The home also comes with a living room that is double the height of a normal living room, a fireplace, and a grand piano with a striking wrought iron staircase, a bar and a nearby blonde wood-paneled library. 

The listing is held by Brett Lawyer and is one of the most expensively priced homes in the district, which is no stranger to high-priced sales. Four recent estate sales in Bel-Air have sold for over $40 million including the sale of The One megamansion, which even at a discounted price, was still one of the most expensive homes ever sold in Los Angeles.
