Firefighters were called to a home in the 100 block of Howse Road Northeast at around 10:30 p.m.
Arriving crews found smoke and flames coming from the two-storey home.
The Calgary Fire Department said crews had to battle the blaze from outside of the house because of structural damage the fire had caused inside the home.
