“The investigation is still early, but it’s not suspicious at this point.”
Thankfully, due to the house being located near a golf course, a fire hydrant was conveniently located outside the home, leading to a quick extinguish.
Four engines in total were called to the fire.
The department said no one was injured and occupants were not home during the fire.
