Joshua Jackson's $2M Topanga Canyon home is latest celebrity abode destroyed in LA fire

Joshua Jackson’s $2 million home in Topanga Canyon has been completely destroyed by the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles that started this week on Tuesday.

The Doctor Odyssey actor, 46, had spent his early childhood at the house before moving back to Canada at the age of eight after his parents divorced.

The actor bought the property back in 2001 and recently mentioned in an interview with Mr. Porter Magazine in 2021 that it was a place where he found simplicity.

Tragically, recent images show that the house has turned into a heap of burned debris after falling victim to the Pacific Palisades fire, which has already consumed 22,660 acres, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Portions of the backyard and swimming pool are still intact, while the hills surrounding where the house once stood are also barren due to the flames.

Before, green trees and bushes had bordered the driveway and multiple-story home, while the residence itself contained a large, wooden deck that offered views of the scenery down below.

The residence is now a pile of charred remnants after being burnt to the ground in the Pacific Palisades blaze

A staircase led down one side of hill towards a rectangular-shaped swimming and solar panels. 

In the new images, the area seemingly was untouched by the fire, with lounge chairs and umbrellas still placed next to the pool. 

In the Palisades Fire alone, an estimation of around 5,300 structures have been destroyed – and include homes, churches and schools. 

The Eaton Fire near the Altadena and Pasadena area has burned 13,956 acres as of Saturday, per the LA Times. Officials have stated that 7,000 structures have been burned to the ground in that specific blaze. 

Other infernos have since sparked up, such as the Kenneth Fire and Hurst Fire. On Saturday, firefighters have been working on a flare up of the Palisades blaze near Brentwood. 

1,680 National Guard troops have made their way to Southern California to offer assistance – as the death toll has now risen to 13. 

Jackson is one of many residents and stars who have lost their properties in the deadly wildfires – including Jeff Bridges, Miles Teller, Eugene Levy, Tina Knowles and Paris Hilton. 

While talking to Mr. Porter in 2021, the Dawson’s Creek alum opened up about buying his former childhood home – which he had lived in with his family until he was eight.

The star – who was born in Canada – moved back to Vancouver when his parents divorced, but bought the Topanga Canyon house in 2001. 

He told the outlet at the time, ‘My father unfortunately was not a good father or a husband and exited the scene, but that house in Topanga was where everything felt simple, so it was a very healing thing for me to do.’ 

Joshua and his now-ex Jodie Turner-Smith had previously lived together at the home, and was also where they raised their four-year-old daughter, Juno. 

The actor’s daughter had slept in his own childhood bedroom and said, ‘There was a mural of a dragon on the wall in that room that I couldn’t believe was still there, years later.’

‘The owner [who sold him the house] said, “I knew it meant a lot to somebody and that they were going to come back for it some day.”‘ 

And while talking to E! News in 2023, Jackson also opened up about living in his former childhood home – and raising a family of his own there. 

‘The most surprising thing is that it’s a lot more homey than it looks like from the outside,’ the star expressed. ‘It’s very, very baby-oriented and family-oriented inside the house.’

Joshua and Jodie Turner-Smith began dating in 2018 and tied the knot the following year in 2019. 

Their daughter was born in April 2020 – but in October 2023, it was revealed that the pair had filed for divorce. 

Last month in December, the actress claimed that Joshua has not yet paid both child and spousal support following their split. 

Jackson also previously owned a home in West Hollywood with ex-girlfriend, Diane Kruger, which was sold in 2017 for $5.76 million after they went their separate ways. 

The Pacific Palisades Fire began on Tuesday morning amid strong Santa Winds, and is currently 11% percent contained as of Saturday. 

Over 100,000 people are still facing evacuation orders throughout Southern California as multiple fires continue to burn – and around 12,000 structures are still threatened by the blazes, per NBC News.

Other stars that have lost their homes include Mel Gibson, Seinfeld star Julia-Louis Dreyfus, and Gilmore Girls alum Milo Ventimiglia. 

However, other celebrity homes survived, with James Woods revealing on Friday that his home had not been burned after believing it had been destroyed just days earlier.

Some A-listers have slammed L.A. mayor Karen Bass over the fires, such as Khloe Kardashian who called her ‘a joke.’ 

Many more stars have also joined Kardashian in criticizing Bass over the mismanagement of the deadly blazes – including Sarah Michelle Gellar, James Woods and Sara Foster.
