    The property, restored by the famed Los Angeles spec developer Gala Asher, spans an impressive 38,000 square feet of air-conditioned living area.

    After marrying in 2022, Affleck listed his Pacific Palisades bachelor pad for close to $30 million and relocated to live with his new wife and her twins, Max and Emme Muniz, in the meantime.

    Lopez made a similar move in February and reportedly sold her Bel-Air home for a substantial $42.5 million. Now, Affleck is living in a rental while Lopez is reportedly looking for a new residence.
