Fire crews were battling a blaze at 209 St. John Street West for three hours.
Platoon Chief Forrest of the Saint John Fire Department said that on Sunday night, crews responding to the call saw that flames were showing from the back of the one and a half story wooden building.
Forrest says the fire was contained to the back and the roof of the house and that there was smoke and water damage, but no one was hurt. They're looking into how the fire started.
