A chimney fire at Pin Oak Estates, outside of Charles City, broke out late Saturday afternoon.
No injuries have been reported, and the cause is still under investigation.
Firefighters searched through the top stories of the home to find the cause of the fire.
Firefighters on the roof could be seen throwing wood and other sources that could further fuel the fire on the ground.
The Charles City Fire Department initially responded, and other agencies followed, including the Colwell Fire Department and Floyd Fire Department. AMR was present as well.

Charles City senior center fielder and leadoff hitter Emerson Bohlen was named Iowa Girls Coaches Association Class 4A All-Northeast District Softball Team — the lone Comet to receive the honor.
Bohlen led the Comets in a bevy of categories, including hits (42), runs (31), walks (18), batting average (.442), on-base percentage (.530) and stolen bases (25 out of 28 attempts).
Earlier this month, Bohlen was one of six Comets named to the final All-Northeast Iowa Conference Softball Team. Bohlen was named to the All-NEIC First Team after being an All-NEIC Second Team selection last season.
Bohlen lettered all four years while playing for her father, Comet head coach Brian Bohlen, who reached his 500th coaching win early in the 2024 season with his daughter — then a junior — in the starting lineup.
