Firefighters encountered high heat conditions in the home and cooled the fire from the exterior before entering to extinguish the fire. The home suffered significant fire and smoke damage throughout. The fire was brought under control at 6:49 a.m. Occupants were home at the time of the fire and evacuated prior to the arrival of the Fire Department.
