More than 40 firefighters worked to douse the fire, which caused the roof of the home to cave in.
Los Angeles Fire Department spokesman Brian Humphrey said at the time that there was ‘nothing left’ of the house, which was ‘absolutely totaled.’
Mathis returned to Los Angeles at the time after playing a show in Cleveland, telling reporters at the time that he was grateful no one was injured in the fire.
‘I’m OK, nobody got hurt – that’s always important – we can always replace things,’ he told the AP.

He told KTLA5: ‘I’m a very lucky man, I could’ve been here, I could’ve been in bed. ‘I’m very lucky, a little sad of course, but very lucky.’
Speaking with DailyMail.com about the landslide, a representative for Mr. Mathis revealed the incident occurred on the morning of January 10.
No one was hurt and, aside from the Jaguar, there was no damage done to the street or other neighboring properties, the representative said.
