Crews reported that the home was 90% involved before extinguishing the blaze around 7:30 a.m.

The building — described as an approximately 1,400-square-foot home on stilts — is expected to be “nonsurvivable,” according to the fire department.

Firefighters reported no injuries or occupants at the time of this report, noting they could not yet search the home due to the threat of imminent collapse.
