- Jennifer Lopez is selling her 9-bedroom, 13-bathroom Bel Air estate for $42.5 million.
- The home sits on more than 7 acres and is one of the largest lots in the exclusive neighborhood.
- The property includes a private beach, a 100-person amphitheater, and an organic vegetable garden.
Jennifer Lopez has left her "Jenny from the Block" days behind, and is ready to do the same with her 14,000-square-foot Bel Air home that has 9 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms.
The home was designed by architect Samuel Marx and built in 1940.
It has undergone a renovation in the French Country style, according to the listing, and features Provençal touches like a stone facade and wood accents.
The estate sits on more than 7 acres, a massive property for Los Angeles's Bel Air neighborhood.
If it sells for the $42.5 million asking price, it will be one of the pricier transactions in Bel Air in recent years. Data from Zillow shows that there have been six homes in the neighborhood that sold for at least $40 million since 2020.
A nearby 105,000-square-foot megamansion known as The One sold at auction for $141 million, including fees and commission, in 2022.
Lopez's estate includes a guest house, a gym, a large kitchen with a built-in breakfast bar, and a 30-seat movie theater, according to the listing agent, Brett Lawyer of Carolwood Estates.
The entertainer bought the home from actress Sela Ward in 2016 for just over $28 million, Mansion Global reported.
Lopez has earned a reputation as a savvy real estate investor since her star-making turn on the silver screen playing Selena Quintanilla in the singer's 1997 biopic, Selena.
In 2000, Lopez bought her first luxury property, a 7-bedroom home in a community called The Summit that overlooks Beverly Hills and Studio City.
Lopez put the property on the market after owning it for just four years and earned about $8 million in profit from the sale, according to Love Property.
The main level of the Bel Air home includes high ceilings, a steel fireplace, and extensive views of the surrounding natural landscape.
Upstairs are a gym, a large library, a massage parlor, and a guest room.
The lower level of the home includes a 30-person theater adorned with posters of Jennifer Lopez and her husband Ben Affleck from films they've starred in including "Monster In Law" and "Hollywoodland."
Lopez has more than 125 film credits as an actress and has starred in movies such as "Hustlers," "Ice Age," and "Jersey Girl," according to IMDB.
She has also appeared in well-known television series including "How I Met Your Mother" and "In Living Color."
The home's primary suite includes dual dressing rooms and opens onto private landscaped terraces.
Outside, the property includes a 100-person amphitheater, an entertaining kitchen, a private lake, and a sandy beach with an outdoor shower.
Unlike many homes in Bel Air, Lopez's estate is surrounded by a huge lawn, an organic vegetable garden, and tall trees that give it a little more privacy than most nearby mansions.
The listing notes that the property's future owner could reasonably add more rooms to the home, or another structure to the property if desired.
