The building is listed as a 1.5 story residence, with a basement. The lower-level resident discovered fire in basement after 7 p.m. They tried to kick in a window and put snow on the flames, but it was out of control at that point.

No one was hurt in the fire. The possible fire source is the basement water heater, but the investigation is ongoing.
