Matt Damon finally sold his stunning Pacific Palisades mansion for $18million after the Zen-inspired property sat on the market for a year. 

The 13,508-square-foot property was originally listed for $21million in January, but was slashed to $17.9million months later after offers were slow to come in.

Warner Bros. CEO Ann Sarnoff snapped up the seven bedroom, 10-bathroom mansion from the Bourne Identity star nearly a decade after he and wife Luciana Barroso purchased the property for $15million.In August, Damon sparked controversy for admitting he had just recently stopped using the word 'f****t' to describe gay people. 

Damon bought the house back in 2012 for $15million and listed it for sale in January after moving to a 6,000sq-ft penthouse in Brooklyn Heights, New York, with his family, The New York Post reported. 

The 13,508sq-ft LA property has three floors and boasts seven bedrooms, ten bathrooms, and a hot tub.

Other amenities in the state include two fireplaces, a private gym, a private screening room, a koi pond, a wine room, a heated pool and enclosed poolside dining. 

Initially built in 2004, the Zen-inspired house sits on more than half an acre and is now listed through real estate agent Eric Haskell from The Agency.

The residence features warm accents of wood and stone throughout the common areas, and no major renovations have been made from the original open-plan concept of the house. 

With vaulted ceilings and floor to ceiling windows, the ambience of the home is sophisticated yet sober. 

The many artful details and curated cabinetry adds to the house's décor. 

Interiors transition into the children's play area, Hawaiian-inspired Lanai with a covered lounge and the dining terrace.

Residents will also enjoyed the perks of upscale dining and shopping nearby areas like The Palisades Village, Santa Monica and The Riviera Country Club.

Damon recently came under fire after revealing in an interview to The Sunday Times that he had 'made a joke' that prompted his daughter to write him a persuading essay on why the 'f-slur for a homosexual' was harmful.

The Bourne Identity actor later retracted and said he never actually said the slur, and merely shared with his daughter how it used to be a casual and often used word not too long ago, even used in a 2003 movie he starred in. 

'I not only agreed with her but thrilled at her passion, values and desire for social justice,' said Damon in a statement after the controversy. 

His remarks especially infuriated many because his latest movie, Stillwater, which is based in Amanda Knox's wrongful murder conviction in Italy, featured a queer character. 

Damon was cast as the father of Allison, a lesbian woman trying to prove her innocence after being accused of killing her girlfriend while studying in France.
