Mandy Moore has opened the doors to her newly restored Altadena home nearly one year after it was partially destroyed in the devastating Eaton fire.

The This Is Us alum, 41, and her husband, musician Taylor Goldsmith, 40, unveiled their completed Los Angeles residence in a home tour with Architectural Digest, published Feb. 11. 

The reveal comes after months of rebuilding following the January 2025 wildfires that swept through parts of L.A., displacing more than 80,000 people and destroying over 1,000 structures.

Moore had been documenting the years-long renovation of the 1931 Spanish Colonial Revival since she and Goldsmith purchased the property in 2020. 

The couple envisioned transforming it into their dream family home, a space where they would raise their three children: sons Gus, 4, and Ozzie, 3, and daughter Lou, 1.

But in January 2025, the Eaton fire tore through their Altadena neighborhood.

“I came here a few hours after the fire passed through this area,” Goldsmith recalled to AD. “The studio was on fire in the back, the garage was already burnt down. As the days went on, we realized our house made it.”

Though the main structure remained standing, the damage was extensive. Smoke and fire impact forced the family to discard nearly all “soft goods,” including rugs, furniture and clothing. The couple relocated to a rental home for nine months while restoration began.

Despite the setback, Moore said leaving the community was never an option.

“I think what initially lured us to Altadena is the spirit of the community here,” she told the outlet. “You just feel so proud to live here. And so proud to stake your claim here. We’re not leaving. We’re digging in deep. We’re rebuilding what we lost.”

Growing emotional, Moore shared a moment that underscored that community bond. “Our sweet neighbor said that if anyone’s house made it, he was glad it was ours, because we had been working on it for so long,” she said. “The grace that somebody who just lost their entire life would have for their neighbor is just beyond. I think that speaks to what this community is.”

Working alongside designer Sarah Sherman Samuel and architect Emily Farnham, the couple spent months restoring and subtly reimagining the home. They officially moved back in last September.

This time around, Moore said, the design feels different.

“I feel like it’s very intentionally softer and warmer and richer, and more colorful and playful,” she explained, noting the home feels “less precious in the best way.”

Goldsmith agreed, emphasizing that they wanted the space to grow with their family.

“We wanted this house to be more of a family home than our previous home,” he said. “We knew we were coming into this one with children; we didn’t know how many at the time, but turns out it was three.”
