Flames had spread from the stove in the kitchen into the cabinets and ceiling.

The kitchen sustained moderate fire damage and the rest of the house had smoke damage.

No one was injured in the blaze, which started in some unattended cooking while the homeowner was asleep. The Red Cross is assisting with temporary housing.
