The Collingwood Fire Department was called to a home on Leslie Drive this afternoon for a house fire.
According to Deputy Fire Chief Dan Thurman, the fire started in the kitchen fan exhaust and spread to the wall behind it.
At least one resident was home at the time and got out safely. She called 911.
There was some smoke damage in the home, which impacted air quality. The residents will be displaced as a result.
Thurman estimated the damage could be around $50,000 though it was too early to confirm that figure.
