The fire started around 3:30 p.m. in the 100 block of Falshire Place Northeast in the Falconridge neighbourhood.
A woman and an 18-month-old girl were taken to hospital to be treated for smoke inhalation after a house fire in northeast Calgary Thursday afternoon.
“Upon arrival, fire crews faced significant flames and smoke from a single-family home. Firefighters quickly extended handlines, protecting neighboring homes and attacking the fire from the exterior before gaining access to the interior to continue with their fire attack and initiate search efforts,” the Calgary Fire Department said in a news release.
