Ben Affleck lives in Los Angeles, California. Since 2024, his main home has been a roughly $20.5 million estate in the Sullivan Canyon area, on the border of Brentwood and Pacific Palisades. He bought it in July 2024, while his marriage to Jennifer Lopez was ending, after spending time in a rental home nearby.
Because the home sits right on the line between two neighborhoods, news outlets describe it differently. Some say Pacific Palisades and some say Brentwood. Both descriptions point to the same part of West Los Angeles. This guide pulls together what has actually been reported about where Affleck lives, his past homes, and what we do not know.

Ben Affleck’s Current Home in Los Angeles
According to Robb Report, Affleck paid $20.5 million for a Cliff May-designed equestrian property known as “Paradise Found.” The property sits in the horse-friendly Sullivan Canyon community on the border of Brentwood and Pacific Palisades, next to a home owned by actress Diane Keaton at the time of the report.
Robb Report describes the house as having cream stucco walls, stone details, and a terracotta roof, with a stone-paved motor court and an attached three-car garage. Records showed the sellers, David Calvert-Jones (a nephew of media mogul Rupert Murdoch) and his wife Karina, had paid about $4.5 million for it in early 2010.
Newsweek reported that the home has five bedrooms and six bathrooms and was purchased on July 24, 2024.
Why This Neighborhood?
Sullivan Canyon is a horse-friendly community in west Los Angeles, according to Robb Report. Reports also place Affleck’s earlier rental near the Brentwood home of his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, and their children. We could not find a public statement from Affleck explaining why he chose this area.
Where Did Ben Affleck Live Before?
Affleck’s recent housing history has had a lot of movement.
The Beverly Hills Mansion With Jennifer Lopez
Affleck and Jennifer Lopez bought a large Beverly Hills mansion together in June 2023 while they were married. Later reporting described it as a 12-bedroom, 24-bathroom estate. They listed it at $68 million in 2024.
According to TMZ, after about a year and a half of trying to sell it at the original asking price, the couple removed the home from online listings in January 2026. TMZ also reported that both had bought new homes since the divorce. We could not find a verified report that the mansion has sold, so its current status is not confirmed here.
The Brentwood Rental
Before buying the Sullivan Canyon property, Affleck lived in a Brentwood rental reported at about $100,000 per month, close to Jennifer Garner’s home, according to Robb Report. Fox News reported that this was also a home he and Lopez reportedly lived in before she filed for divorce in August 2024. The divorce was finalized in January 2025.
The Georgia Estate
Robb Report also reports that Affleck owns a secluded riverfront country estate in Georgia, which he bought in 2003, when he and Lopez first dated years ago. It is not confirmed whether he spends much time there today.
Did Ben Affleck’s House Survive the Palisades Fire?
Yes, according to news reports. When the Palisades Fire spread across Los Angeles in January 2025, Affleck evacuated and went to Jennifer Garner’s home in Brentwood to help her and their children, then returned to his own property. Newsweek reported that his home was at risk, and Fox News reported that, unlike many neighbors’ homes, his reportedly withstood the fire.
