The home was evacuated of its four residents before the Calgary Fire Department arrived.
Two occupants of a neighbouring home were also ushered out due to the growing fire, said a news release.

The home in question sustained damage, as did homes on either side of it.
Early reports say that the smoke alarms in the home where the fire began were not working.
There have been no reports of injuries as a result of the fire.
The heritage home was a popular bed and breakfast in Hillhurst.
River Lee rents out to tourists and travelers and is next door to another bed & breakfast owned by the same woman.
Now neighbours are rallying to support her loss and the one to the community.
The Calgary Fire Department continues to investigate the cause.
