In the exclusive enclave of Beverly Hills, where privacy comes at a premium and luxury knows no bounds, one of Hollywood's most talked-about properties has just become slightly more attainable—if you happen to have $60 million to spare.
The magnificent Crestview Manor at 2571 Wallingford Drive, owned by former power couple Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, has just received a significant price cut of $8.1 million. Originally listed in July 2024 at $68 million, the estate is now available for $59,950,000—a price adjustment that reportedly reflects Affleck's desire to move forward with the sale, despite Lopez's initial reluctance to lower the asking price.
This isn't just any luxury residence—it's a statement property that perfectly encapsulates the lifestyle of A-list celebrities. Recently renovated to the highest standards within the last four months, this magnificent estate sits perched atop a five-acre promontory in one of Beverly Hills' most secure and exclusive neighborhoods.
The numbers alone are staggering:
What truly sets this property apart is its extraordinary array of amenities that cater to both wellness and entertainment. The indoor sports complex features basketball and pickleball courts, a fully equipped gym, and even a boxing ring—perfect for Lopez, known for her disciplined fitness regimen.
Outside, a stunning zero-edge pool frames expansive views of the surrounding mountains, creating a serene backdrop that feels worlds away from the hustle of Hollywood, despite being just minutes from the prestigious Beverly Hills Hotel and a mere 20-minute drive from Van Nuys private airport.
The property has an interesting history tied to its famous owners. Lopez and Affleck purchased the estate in May 2023 for $60,850,000 during what appeared to be a high point in their rekindled romance. Just over a year later, in July 2024, they listed the property for $68 million—a move that, in retrospect, signaled trouble in paradise.
The couple finalized their divorce in February 2025, with their settlement including a confidential agreement regarding the house. According to sources close to the situation, Affleck has been motivated to sell the property and was pushing for the price reduction, while Lopez initially preferred to maintain the higher asking price.
Despite the celebrity pedigree, real estate is still subject to market forces. After nearly a year on the market with no takers at the $68 million price point, even these A-listers had to face reality. Real estate insiders had suggested the original asking price was simply too high for the current market.
Adding to the financial considerations, sources indicate that insurance costs for the property are substantial—around $500,000 annually—which further impacts its marketability to potential buyers.
With this price adjustment bringing the asking price back in line with what the couple originally paid (they'll still make a small profit if it sells at the current listing), the question remains: Will this reduction be enough to attract a buyer? Or will further price adjustments be necessary before this chapter in the former couple's shared history can finally close?
For now, this extraordinary estate stands as a monument to Hollywood glamour and excess—a property that, like its famous former owners, continues to captivate public attention even as it enters a new phase.
