Zooey Deschanel shared stark before-and-after photos of her childhood home on Friday, now gone after the devastating LA fires.
The New Girl star, 45, took to Instagram to post the emotional photos, joining a growing number of celebrities who have lost their homes in the devastation sweeping through the region.
The photos captured her Pacific Palisades home in its prime, showcasing its stunning 1920s Spanish Revival architecture, alongside another image of the same spot now reduced to nothing but ash and rubble.
'My childhood home. A marvel of 1920s Spanish Revival architecture,' Zooey began. 'Full of too many incredible memories to count,' Zooey captioned the post. 'It was one of the oldest homes in the Palisades and so spectacularly beautiful.'
'It wasn't a mansion, but it was cozy and lovely, unique, and perfect to me,' she continued. 'The Christmas dinners, Easter egg hunts, trick-or-treating, weddings, birthdays, baby showers⌠we celebrated the best moments of our lives there.'
She shared throwback photos of her family enjoying the property, including her sister Emily Deschanel, best known for her role on Bones.

'The family photos that lined the hallways, the artwork, the piano I learned to play on, the wedding china, the furniture my great-great-grandfather built⌠the reminders of generations past,' Zooey added.
'All have vanished into thin air.'
Recognizing the widespread loss, she expressed her gratitude for the outpouring of support from both friends and strangers.
She thanked everyone who stepped up to help, whether by offering meals, clothes, or emotional support.
The actress also gave a shout-out to the firefighters, calling them 'true heroes,' and emphasized how the kindness of the community has made this tough time a little easier to bear.
Zooey wrapped up by saying just how much all the kind gestures have meant to her and her family.
'Thank you all for showing us the goodness in your hearts. You have no idea how much it means to us,' she said.
As the fires continue to rage, Zooey and many others are left grappling with the heartbreaking loss of their homes in one of the hardest-hit areas of Los Angeles.

Zooey's childhood home is just one of the thousands of structures destroyed by the Palisades fire that erupted on Tuesday, January 7.Â
General Hospital star Cameron Mathison broke down in tears as he recounted returning to the ruins of his California home after the blaze swept through his neighborhood last week.
'I can't sleep. I've lost everything I own. I have this hoodie I'm wearing, a pair of pants, and two pairs of sneakersâthat's it,' he explained to GMA. 'But obviously, it's important to focus on what we have and what we can be grateful for.'
Mathison and his now-estranged wife Vanessa Arevalo had lived in the Pasadena home since 2012, along with their children Lelia, 18, and Lucas, 21.Â
Actor Adam Brody and Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester's home in the Pacific Palisades also fell victim to the catastrophic wildfires.
They bought their home in 2019 for $6.5 million. The house had five bedrooms, six bathrooms, and three floors across 6,000 square feet.Â
Cary Elwes, Paris Hilton, James Woods, Miles Teller, Jhene Aiko and Billy Crystal are among the stars who lose their houses to the unprecedented fire.
The LA blazes have collectively destroyed over 12,000 structures and scorched 60 square miles of land in just over a week; the Pacific Palisades pictured on January 7
The celeb-loved enclave is also home to Ben Affleck, Tom Hanks, Reese Witherspoon and Adam Sandler, but their properties were left untouched by the blaze.
Across town, actress Mandy Moore saw part of her Pasadena home destroyed as a result of the Eaton Fire that leveled much of Altadena, California.
Sadly, at least 27 people have lost their lives in the fires that spanned across LA County.
