According to the department, the house had recently been converted into a duplex and wasn’t being lived in while renovations were underway.

Crews discovered the fire was mainly located on the exterior at the back of the house, but said it had extended into the attic by the time they arrived.

A safety alert was given to firefighters at the scene due to the discovery of downed power lines near the house.

The department said no injuries have been reported.
