UPDATE: 5 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 26, 2013

The cause of Sunday morning's fire that gutted much of a home on Las Amigas is still under investigation, a spokesman at the Cal Fire Greenwood Ranch Station said.

No one was injured in the blaze. Residents were home at the time of the 4 a.m. fire, but "they all got out in time -- no one had smoke inhalation or anything like that," the spokesman said.

Occupants of the house were the ones who called it in, he said.

Firefighters, who brought more 1,000 gallons of water in two water tender trucks, were able to get the fire under control within an hour, the spokesman said.

It was not immediately clear where the fire started. He had no immediate estimate on the cost of damages to the home

"We're still working on that," he said. "It will be a few days."
