After two years of house hunting, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez settled on a new 15,100-square-foot mansion in Pacific Palisades. But did they meet the $34.5 million ask?

The A-list newlyweds have entered escrow on the newly built home listed at 14330 West Sunset Boulevard, Dirt.com reported, citing TMZ.

Built on spec last year by a group of undisclosed developers, the seven-bedroom, 13-bathroom estate hit the market a month ago.

Described in the listing as “Hamptons-esque,” the two-story, bleach-white house with wide eaves and many gables sits on an acre behind tall walls and hedges, surrounded by native sycamores.

A pea gravel motor court, accessed via a brick porte-cochère, is accompanied by a six-car garage.

Inside the all-white mansion, hardwood floors prevail through living and dining rooms with a fireplace, lit with ample windows and glass doors. A home library opens onto a covered patio.

The estate has four kitchens, including a gourmet kitchen, service kitchen, outdoor kitchen and a fourth kitchen in a detached guesthouse, which has a living room, dining room and bedroom suite.

The main house has six bedrooms, including a master suite with a sitting room, dual bathrooms, dual closets and a balcony overlooking the backyard.

 Also at the ready are a movie theater, gym, wine cellar and a “health spa,” according to the listing by broker Gary Glass of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California.

Outside, a dark-bottom pool is ringed by a big patio and glade.

The Hollywood couple is already prepped for their highly publicized move. Lopez, 53, has her resort-like Bel Air home listed for sale at $42.5 million. Affleck, 50, sold his Palisades bachelor pad for $28 million last year.

Their new digs, even at the nearly $35 million list price, are far cheaper than the $55 million estate they tried to buy in Bel-Air, but the deal fell through.
