The house Ben Affleck bought for JLo and him is discounted for sale

If you've lived here for any length of time you may recall that Ben Affleck used to date Jennifer Lopez. They were so in love they actually went to Savannah to get a marriage license, but alas they never did marry. However, Affleck did purchase a home they planned to live in.

The home is in Liberty County outside Riceboro and he bought the home in 2003 for $7.1 million.

Listing descriptions describe the elegant main residence as “The Big House,” a “remarkable re-creation of a Southern antebellum Greek Revival plantation home” situated on nearly 90 acres overlooking the North Newport River with three ample bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms in almost 6,400 square feet over three floors. Historically accurate features include deep verandas and imposing columns, dark-stained heart-of-pine floorboards and soaring 15-foot ceilings festooned with elaborate moldings.

The “Oyster House,” a rustic guesthouse set a short walk from the main house, contains a cavernous entertainment space and three master suites plus five more bedrooms fitted with built-in bunk beds salvaged from marine vessels, while the metal-roofed “Summer Cottage,” a spacious screened-in structure with massive fireplace, sits near the river’s edge, where a private dock includes an open-air boathouse. The property is represented byDicky MopperofEngel & Völkers in Savannah.

The home on Hampton Island Preserve was listed at $8.9 millipn but has been discounted by 15% to $7.6 million.
