Nicolas Cage’s Malibu mansion — a $10.5 million beachfront property — is literally sinking into the ground.

Photos show a deep hole where the driveway of the spacious modern home used to be.

Leading up to the enclosed garage, asphalt and concrete appear to have simply cracked open and fallen in, along with various items including a construction site port-a-potty and what appear to be fragmented panels from a privacy fence.

Large chunks of concrete were visible in the hole, as well.
