Anthony Hopkins' $4.9 million Malibu mansion was miraculously left untouched during the California wildfire that ravaged his neighbor's home.

A striking aerial photograph shows the Welsh actor's four-story red-and-white brick home beaming in the sunlight, next to acres of charred debris in Point Dume, on the Santa Monica Bay.

Even the front garden of the "Remains Of The Day" star's home looked completely flawless, with two deckchairs sprucely positioned in line with the front door.

His neighbor's incinerated home is a chilling reminder of the carnage the relentless wildfire has caused across the town of Paradise.
