Jennifer Lopez's $21M Mansion Gets a Sexy Glow-Up Post-Divorce

Jennifer Lopez has gotten to work on a big project.

The 55-year-old singer is giving a ‘sexy glow up’ to her new $21M nest that she snapped up in February after finalizing her divorce from husband of two years Ben Affleck.

The over 10K-square-foot mansion is located in the gated Hidden Hills, California community where friends Kim and Khloe Kardashian as well as Kylie and Kris Jenner reside.

‘Jennifer is renovating the home to her satisfaction,’ an insider told DailyMail.com. ‘She is spending a lot of money because it’s big: there is the main house, the pool house and a guest house.’

But this is business as usual for the Unstoppable actress. ‘Jennifer renovates every home she moves into because she wants a certain look, the JLo touch, which makes the place her very own,’ added the friend.

‘She has great style so she makes everything better. And she had very specific ideas for this place. Jennifer wants it light, bright and flirty,’ said the source.

It will be a great pad to enjoy the summer months, though she will be out of town often.

Lopez’s Up All Night: Live in 2025 summer tour will feature shows across Europe and beyond, beginning on July 4 in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt, and concluding on August 7 in Istanbul, Turkey.

She will also be performing in Las Vegas, where she used to have a residency.

Her 56th birthday falls on July 24.

The home celebrates her new life as a single woman after a painful split from Ben.

The property is an hour drive from Affleck’s home in the Brentwood area, near his ex-wife Jennifer Garner.

DailyMail.com earlier reported the single mother to twins Max and Emme moved for peace of mind. ‘Jennifer wanted to get out of the hustle and bustle of the city and have a more relaxed home life in Hidden Hills,’ said the source.

‘It has nothing to do with getting away from Ben and his family and Jennifer and their kids. She is OK with them. It is about being in a more relaxed environment.’

It also helps that the security is tops.

‘She bought a home in a gated community where there is security personnel and cameras everywhere, it’s extremely safe. This way she doesn’t have to worry if Max rides his bicycle down a street or if Emme goes for a walk with a friend.’

Jennifer has lived in the area before. In 2001 she had a house in Calabasas when she was wed to Cris Judd.

This new house is quite the beauty.

The sprawling 2.5-acre estate features a 10,046-square-foot main house, along with a barn, stables, a riding arena, a guest house, and a pool.

For added luxury, the home boasts a private theater, a chef’s kitchen, and a fully equipped gym.

The property also has a touch of Hollywood history, having once been owned by John Fogerty of Creedence Clearwater Revival, who purchased it from Sylvester Stallone before selling it to Lopez.

Meanwhile, Lopez and Affleck are still struggling to sell their $61 million Beverly Hills mansion, which they purchased in May 2023.

Initially attempting an off-market sale, they later publicly listed the 38,000-square-foot mansion for $68 million in July.

Known as Crestview Manor, the lavish estate includes a 12-bedroom, 24-bathroom main house, a 5,000-square-foot guest penthouse, a two-bedroom guardhouse, a caretaker’s house, and a 12-car garage.

The property also boasts a home bar, gym, sports lounge, boxing ring, basketball and pickleball courts, and parking for up to 80 vehicles.

It also helps that the security is tops. ‘She bought a home in a gated community where there is security personnel and cameras everywhere, it’s extremely safe.

The former couple accepted a $64 million offer from a New Jersey buyer, but the deal fell through in September, leaving the mansion back on the market as of December 5.

TMZ reported that while the buyers remain ‘interested,’ the home remains unsold.

A source told PEOPLE that Lopez and Affleck weren’t fully aligned when they bought the house.

‘The $68 million mansion was Ben’s idea and a major compromise for her,’ the insider revealed, noting that its expansive layout was ideal for their blended family.

However, Lopez reportedly preferred a more romantic, European-inspired aesthetic, while Affleck soon found the home’s location inconvenient for his Brentwood-based life and children.

After months of speculation about their crumbling marriage, Lopez filed for divorce in August, citing April 26, 2024, as their date of separation.

Affleck moved into a $20 million Brentwood home in September, placing him closer to his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, and their three children.

Lopez and Affleck’s rekindled romance, which began in 2021 after 17 years apart, saw them wed in a whirlwind Las Vegas ceremony in July 2022, followed by a star-studded celebration at Affleck’s Georgia estate.

Last month Affleck shed some light on the breakdown of his marriage to Lopez and his relationship with first wife Garner in a candid chat with British GQ.

Affleck has insisted there was ‘no scandal, no soap opera, no intrigue’ that caused their breakup.

Admitting why he doesn’t like to dwell too much on the split in interviews, he said that it wasn’t a blame game but ‘the reason I don’t want to share that is just sort of embarrassing. It feels vulnerable.’

Affleck also addressed his participation in the documentary, The Greatest Love Story Never Told – part three of his wife’s $20 million media homage to their romance.

Fans were quick to point out how disinterested he looked in the doc – where he openly said he felt ‘uncomfortable’ on camera and revealed he ‘found their privacy sacred’.

Doubling down on his remarks, Affleck explained: ‘Part of it was, “OK, if I’m going to participate in this, I want to try to do it in an honest way and in a way that’s interesting.” Because I thought it was an interesting examination.’

Addressing the difference in their approach to fame, he continued: ‘My temperament is to be a little bit more reserved and private than hers.

‘As happens in relationships, you don’t always have the same attitude towards these things.

‘And so I thought, “Oh, this is interesting because how do you reconcile that?” Because exactly what you said is true. I love and support this person. I believe in them. They’re great. I want people to see that… You’ve got to own what you knew going into any relationship.’

Clarifying that he ‘has a lot of respect’ for Lopez, the Oscar-winning actor added that fans would do well not to read too much into their documentary.

He mused: ‘I think it’s important to say that wasn’t the cause of some major fracture. It’s not like you can watch that documentary and go, “Oh, now I understand the issues that these two had.”’
