Firefighters arrived on the scene at 10 o’clock and by 1:30 a.m. they had the fire out, said Dillon Cobb, chief of the Kensington Fire Department. By the time the fire was out, there was little of the house still standing. There were no injuries and the cause remains undetermined, he said.

"Actually, we just got back from the scene again after it flared up. It had been smoldering for a while and then it took us an hour to put out the flare,” Cobb said.
