"It's all gone. 💔I can't believe I am typing these words," Lake, 56, wrote in the caption of her Jan. 8 Instagram upload, which included some of her favorite images taken on the property.

"After a valiant and brave effort by our friend and hero @kirbykotler_ Ross and I lost our dream home," she revealed. "This description 'dream home' doesn't suffice. It was our heaven on earth. The place where we planned to grow old together.

"We never took our heavenly spot on the bluff overlooking our beloved malibu for granted, not even for one second," the TV personality added, reminding fans how she "shared our sunset 🌅 views almost daily with all of you."
