Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony have brand-new neighbors -- themselves. Public records show that the superstar couple purchased the home next door to the one they already own in Brookville for $2.05 million.
The sale closed Dec. 19 on the 2.24-acre property. The deed is in Anthony’s name.
The five-bedroom, 4 ½-bath Colonial originally went on the market last March for $2.299 million with Regina Rogers of Prudential Douglas Elliman. The property shares estate gates with the home that Lopez and Anthony already own. The couple reportedly spent millions of dollars to fortify security and the gates to the estate prior to the birth of the twins, Max and Emme, last year.
At the time the house went on the market, Rogers told Newsday, “In order to access this house, you have to enter through the estate gates. I love the approach, and the long Belgian block-lined bluestone driveway."
The home that Lopez and Anthony had already owned was purchased by Anthony in 2000 for $3.7 million. It has been reported that J-Lo’s mom, Guadalupe, moved in with the couple last year to help out after the twins were born. Could this house be for her?
