“We’ll find out exactly the cause before we’re finished here today, but somewhere on the far side of the house, either in or out, I’m not 100 per cent sure,” said HRFE assistant chief Chuck Bezanson.

No one was inside the home at the time and there were no injuries.

“There’s no one inside so we’re happy there, and no firefighter injuries to report either, so the best thing now is to keep people safe,” said Bezanson.
