Three people have been left homeless after a house fire in Tsawwassen over the weekend.

Delta fire deputy chief Ken Sim said firefighters were called out to the home in the 1200-block of 52 Street just before 4 a.m. Saturday.

When crews arrived, he said, the three occupants of the home were all out and accounted for. No one was injured in the blaze.

Sim said the fire was not fully involved when firefighters first arrived, but it took some time to extinguish as it spread.

"It pretty well was fully involved," he said, adding that the house in "not in good shape" after the blaze.

"We had crews on scene all day putting out hot spots."

The cause of the fire is still under investigation, although it does not appear to be suspicious, Sim said.

It appears to have started in the bedroom area of the two-storey home, he said.
