The fire on Takelma Way in the Clear Lake Riviera was first reported at about 4 p.m., according to Kelseyville Fire Fire Captain Jim Dowdy.
Dowdy said that, in addition to Kelseyville Fire, Lake County Fire Protection District and Cal Fire responded to the incident.
The first engine to arrive on scene found the house on fire, he said.
“It involved a small amount of vegetation as well,” Dowdy added.
Dowdy said it took about an hour to contain the fire and a few more hours to mop up the scene.
The house was destroyed by the fire, Dowdy said, with a neighbor’s home sustaining some very minor heat damage to its siding.
He said there were no injuries.
“The fire is currently under investigation,” Dowdy said.
