Tom Hanks’ $26M cliffside Pacific Palisades mansion narrowly avoids LA fire

Tom Hanks’ $26million home in the Pacific Palisades narrowly avoided the raging LA wildfire wreaking unimaginable havoc on the celeb-loved enclave.

The devastating fire — one of six that have terrorized Los Angeles in recent days — has burned more than 17,000 acres of land and destroyed over 1,000 structures.

Nearly 40,000 residents in the Pacific Palisades and surrounding areas of Malibu and Santa Monica were forced to evacuate. As of Thursday, the fire remains entirely uncontained.

While a slew of A-list stars saw their homes turn to ash, Hanks’ white cliffside mansion appeared virtually untouched in a new photo obtained by DailyMail.com.

Hanks’ 4,513 square-foot house was situated just far enough away from the actor’s nearest neighbor, whose home was completely destroyed by fire.

There was no debris visible on Hanks’ roof or on his spacious backyard patio. 

However, smoke was still visible in the air as it continued to waft from the ruins of his neighbor’s home. 

Paris Hilton, Anthony Hopkins, Tina Knowles, John Goodman, Candy Spelling, Milo Ventimiglia, and Miles Teller are among those whose homes were demolished.

The so-called Palisades Fire between Santa Monica and Malibu on LA’s western flank and the Eaton Fire in the east near Pasadena already rank as the most destructive in Los Angeles history, consuming more than 34,000 acres (13,750 hectares) – or some 53 square miles.
