Two visitors were in the home when the fire was reported just before 7 p.m. Monday, but both escaped uninjured. A pet was killed, although a cat was rescued.

The Derry Fire Department says heavy smoke was showing when crews arrived.

The cause of the fire is undetermined, but it is not considered suspicious. The house is considered a total loss.
