Sir Anthony Hopkins has reportedly listed his California estate for £5.1 million after it was destroyed by the wildfires that tore through Los Angeles earlier this year.
The Oscar-winning actor, 87, is said to be asking $6.4 million (£5.1 million) for the two adjoining plots, which were ravaged in the blaze.
Anthony originally purchased the estate in two parts back in 2018 and 2019, spending a total of $12.6 million (£10 million).
Despite the heartbreaking loss, the Silence of the Lambs star has remained grounded.
Speaking to The Mirror, he said: 'As we all struggle to heal from the devastation of these fires, it's important we remember that the only thing we take with us is the love we give.'
This isn't the first time Anthony's home has faced the threat of fire.

Back in November 2018, his Malibu home narrowly escaped the Woolsey Fire, which destroyed his neighbour's property.
Even earlier, in 2000, he lost his London home in a separate blaze, though he was in Los Angeles at the time.
January's wildfires killed ten people and forced thousands from their homes, devastating the Palisades neighbourhood.
Among those affected were celebrities including Paris Hilton, Billy Crystal, Diane Warren, and Ricki Lake.
Paris, 43, said she watched her waterfront Malibu home burn to the ground on live television
'Sitting with my family, watching the news, and seeing our home in Malibu burn to the ground on live TV is something no one should ever have to experience,' the socialite said on X/Twitter, accompanied by a clip from KABC depicting the damage.
Anna Faris, 48, also lost her $5million mansion during the devastating Pacific Palisades fire.
The 4,000 square foot home, which she snapped up for almost $5M in 2019, was seen charred to its foundation in new images.

Top Gun: Maverick star Miles Teller and his wife, Keleigh, bought their dream home for $7.5million in April 2023. However, their home was entirely wiped out.
Keleigh had shared several photos on Instagram at the time, the first being a dramatic photo of the blaze with a crying emoji, and the second urging evacuees to leave bowls of water on the streets for animals as they escaped.
Meanwhile, American Pie star Eugene Levy's home had also been levelled.
The 78-year-old Schitt's Creek star lost his home in LA's Pacloific Palisades neighbourhood after the rapidly spreading Westside fire burned it to the ground.
He told the Los Angeles Times that he had been caught in gridlock traffic as he tried to evacuate the neighbourhood ahead of the flames.
Levy had reportedly purchased his property back in 2006 for a relatively modest $3.9 million, according to Urban Splatter.
Alexia & Guerdy Tease One of the “Biggest Bravo Moments” at “Historic” RHOM Reunion tram
The Real Housewives of Miami Season 7 reunion has already been filmed, and according to Guerdy Abraira and Alexia Nepola, it's both "historic" and "emotional."
The castmates teased what to expect while speaking with The Daily Dish at DIRECTV's Plot Twist - Featuring Bravo event on Aug. 12, with Alexia adding that the day was "intense," while Guerdy opted to describe it as "shocking."
Elaborating without giving too much away, Guerdy explained that she and some of her fellow mojito-holders "were under the impression that something was the way it was" with one cast member, but a bombshell reveal changed things.
"So this whole time we're looking at them like, 'Wait, this whole time this has been happening and we didn't know it?!'" she continued. "It's really, really historic. I don't know what else to say."
How historic, exactly? "If they were to pick the 10 biggest Bravo moments, this would be one of them," Guerdy said.

Further teasing the reunion, Guerdy told The Daily Dish that the "truth" apparently "hurt a lot of people's feelings," because she noticed that some of her fellow cast members have since unfollowed her on social media.
"Whatever, I'm happy with it. I got to release it. I can't protect people," Guerdy added. "It is what it is and it ain't what it ain't, and I'm not sorry."
Alexia Nepola reveals her takeaway from the RHOM Season 7 reunion
Alexia, for her part, shared that she got some resolution during the RHOM Season 7 reunion. "But then I don't know what happened," she said before revealing that she got dinner with Marysol Patton and Julia Lemigova afterward.
"So we leave there, and then we're still having dinner separately, so like, I don't know," she continued. "Like for me, I have resolution, you know? I'm the kind of person that once I get it out and I say whatever I have to say, I'm ready to move on. I forget about it and I just move on."
Alexia Nepola shares her thoughts on the RHOM Season 7 seating chart
For those who have yet to take a look at the RHOM reunion seating chart, Alexia sat right next to reunion host Andy Cohen, followed by Larsa Pippen, Julia, Marysol, and Kiki Barth. Meanwhile, on his left sat Stephanie Shojaee, Lisa Hochstein, Guerdy, and Adriana de Moura.
Reacting to the arrangement, Alexia told The Daily Dish that she didn't mind where she sat — although she does love being close to Andy.
"I mean, of course, I love to sit next to Andy, because I love Andy," she explained. "But I actually love to sit next to him on Watch What Happens Live, you know, not so much in the reunion, because it could be good and bad."
