Flames destroyed a Northville Township home on New Year’s Eve.

Fire Chief Brent Siegel said a caller notified dispatchers at about 10:48 p.m. that flames were shooting from the rear of a residence in the Sutters Lane area.

Firefighters would learn the blaze actually was happening along Camden Court, a short street southeast of the intersection of Six Mile and Northville roads.

Crews found the entire two-story colonial home ablaze.

“It was a significant fire,” Siegel said. “The house was pretty much a total loss.”

Extreme fire conditions and structural damage prevented crews from entering the home and attached garage. They had to extinguish flames from outside.

No one was home. No one was injured.

Livonia, Northville and Plymouth Township firefighters assisted.  

The fire remains under investigation.
