A Granite Quarry house that burned Sunday is likely a total loss, according to Granite Quarry Fire Chief Dale Brown.

The house is located in the 500 block of Railroad Street in Granite Quarry

Brown said the accidental fire originated in the kitchen of the single-family home around 7:53 a.m., and crews were on the scene until 12:11 p.m.

“It took some extensive overhaul, so it took a while,” he said, adding that there was “tremendous heat” in the house when crews arrived and that it took them a while to look for hidden fires in the wall and insulation.

No occupants were injured.

Granite Quarry, Union, Faith, Rockwell and Salisbury fire departments responded, as well as Rowan Rescue.
