Fire control received a call earlier this evening reporting a kitchen fire near the above location.
Crews were quickly mobilised to the scene and reported the property was heavily smoke logged, but all persons were free and clear of the property.
The fire was caused by items being left on a kitchen hob. Crews used four breathing apparatus, one hose reel jet, one attack jet, one thermal imaging camera, and small tools to extinguish the fire. The kitchen and appliances were 30% fire damaged and 60% smoke damaged. The fire is believed to be accidental.
