Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck buy £8m house

Rikki Lake and Tobey Maguire among their neighbours

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck already have a 2-year-old daughter

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck have forked out £8million for a bigger house ahead of the birth of their second baby.

The couple, who are yet to officially announce Jen's pregnancy, have bought a 7-bedroom mansion in Brentwood, LA.

The property sits in an acre of land and has a three-car garage, barbeque area, wine cellar and pool.

It is thought the transaction will be complete in time for the arrival of the baby in December.

Last month, Ben's pal, director Kevin Smith, confirmed the couple are expecting.

‘[Ben] came over last week and told me, “I'm having another baby!"’ he told Us Weekly. 'He's a good dad.’

Jennifer, 36, and Ben, 35, are already parents to daughter, Violet, 2.

Their new neighbours include American chat show host Rikki Lake and actor Tobey Maguire.
