The entryway
The home covers over 13,500 square feet and has seven bedrooms and ten bathrooms. However, the house is built for a family that loves spending time outdoors. The centerpiece of the property is a central atrium with a 35-foot-tall ceiling that allows light to pour in through clerestory windows. There are also movable glass walls in the California-style formal rooms that open seamlessly.
The dining room
The chef's kitchen has mahogany with bluestone countertops. The master suite could be a home unto itself, as it has a private terrace, two dressing rooms, a massage room, and a bathroom. The estate also has a game room, bar office, staff quarters, wine storage, tasting room, and a media room. Basically, if there is an activity you love, there is a special room for it.
The master bedroom
Damon is not the only celebrity to call the Pacific Palisades home. His estate is close to friend Ben Affleck's home. Others who live in the area include Steven Spielberg, Chevy Chase, Dan Aykroyd, Billy Crystal, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Diane Keaton. Celebrities love the area for its "community feel," Haskell told the WSJ.
The outdoor pavilion
The estate was clearly built for people who love to interact with nature. The property includes a children's play area, pool, spa, waterfall, koi pond, and an outdoor pavilion in the backyard. A lounge and dining area can be found at the pavilion. Haskell said Damon and Barroso did some remodeling, but never any major renovations.
The game room
Affleck and Damon worked together on their latest film, The Last Duel. Directed by Ridley Scott, the two wrote the film with Nicole Holofcener. It is based on the book by Eric Jager about Jean de Carrouges (Damon) and Jacques Le Gris (Adam Driver) and is set in 14th Century France. Affleck has a supporting part as King Charles VI. The movie is scheduled for release on Oct. 15 and also stars Jodie Comer.
The living room
Damon and Affleck won an Oscar in 1998 for writing Good Will Hunting. He was also nominated for Best Actor for the film. His other nominations include Best Supporting Actor for Invictus and Best Actor for The Martian. In 2017, he was nominated for Best Picture as a producer for Manchester by the Sea, which starred Affleck's brother, Casey Affleck.
