A late-night house fire not far from the Horseshoe Bay ferry terminal was quickly extinguished by West Vancouver firefighters.
The fire involved a home along the waterfront at Tyee Point, with the blaze igniting around 11 p.m.
The fire was called in by passengers on a ferry.
An eyewitness told Global News that the home was completely engulfed in flames, adding that it was known to be unoccupied and was heavily vandalized.
The fire was captured on video and shared with Global News.
West Vancouver Fire and Rescue responded with three engines, a wildfire truck and a tower truck. A fire boat from Vancouver assisted as well.
Firefighters said cool temperatures and low wind made it a low-risk fire and that it was managed effectively.
No occupants were found inside the home and no injuries were reported.
The cause of the fire is under investigation.
