Two years after his split from Jennifer Lopez, musician and actor Marc Anthony is finally committing to a new home as a single guy. The 44-year-old has purchased a five-bedroom, four-and-a-half bathroom house in the Los Angeles district of Encino -- located in the San Fernando Valley -- for $2.5 million, according to real estate website Trulia.

The "I Need to Know" singer will now have plenty of luxurious features to take advantage of at the 6,200-square-foot manse, which sits on nearly half an acre, including a gourmet kitchen with high-end appliances, and oversized marble steam shower (with floral designs etched into the glass), a gym on a separate, third floor, multiple fireplaces, wine cellar, dumbwaiter, pool, spa, two barbeques, and a pool house with separate kitchen.

The Mediterranean-style villa is ornate for sure. In addition to that shower-glass etching, there's a dramatic two-story foyer, coffered ceilings, lots of stone, marble, and carved wood accents throughout, as well as leaded glass doors and windows.

Though Anthony -- who is dad to 5-year-old twins Emme and Max he had with Lopez as well two older sons from a previous marriage -- was most recently renting a place in trendy West Hollywood for a whopping $23,000 a month. With this purchase, he's moving to a more suburban environment … not to mention a hotter one. Temps reached 102 degrees on Monday, which is fitting for a guy who starred in a film called "Man on Fire." After all, some like it hot!
