Stephanie Palmer told CTV News that she called 911 when she saw the flames at her neighbours house and crews were on scene taking action within five minutes.
"I got out of the bath and happened to look out the window and saw the front of the building glowing," she said.
Palmer said no one was inside the house at the time of the fire and the person that lives there was a few doors down at a friend's house.
