The fire on Timberline Road was called in at 5:52 a.m. and platoon captain Jarret Dais said a two-storey residential structure was fully engulfed in flames by the time crews arrived.
There were five trucks and 16 firefighters on scene at the height of the blaze, though they quickly gained the upper hand and within a couple of hours only one fire truck remained on scene.
