The property is located in Fairfield, California, on the border of Solano and Napa counties.
The house sat on 13,500 square feet of land, which includes a helicopter pad and 50-foot swimming pool. It cost the original owner, John Roscoe, $17 million to buy the plot and build the home in 2003.
Roscoe started the discount chain "Cigarettes Cheaper!"
The property's current owners are Cathy and Jesse Marion, who reportedly live in Texas. They purchased the "Glass House" as a vacation home for $3.4 million in 2012.
The couple has reportedly vowed to rebuild the home.
On October 13, the Solano County Sheriff's Office took aerial video footage of the destroyed home.
News anchor Jodi Hernandez of NBC also tweeted out footage of the destruction on the property.
