A Wood Road home was destroyed by fire Tuesday night.

One injury was reported in fighting the fire at 29 Wood Road, a one-lane, dead-end road on the west side of Androscoggin Lake in Wayne.

The occupants, who were home at the time, were able to make it out of the burning building. One individual sustained minor injury and was transported by Winthrop Ambulance to a local hospital for medical evaluation.

Wayne Fire Department Chief Tyler Stevenson said Wednesday the fire appears to have started in a garage and spread to the attached two-story home, destroying both structures and leaving a couple without their home.

“It was going pretty good when we got there,” Stevenson said. “We were unable to save it.”

The home’s two occupants, both adults, had a place to stay, he said, and he believed the home was insured.

Firefighters from several towns, including Readfield, Mount Vernon, Fayette, Leeds, Winthrop and Vienna, responded to help Wayne firefighters at the scene. Monmouth firefighters covered a car accident in Wayne while the fire was underway.

Efforts to put out the fire were made more difficult because the only access to the property was via a single lane camp road. Stevenson said firefighters were able to prevent the flames from spreading to the neighboring property, roughly 60 feet away, although some of the siding melted due to the heat from the fire .

“Access wasn’t great, being a one lane, dead-end dirt road,” Stevenson said. “It was definely a challenging setup.”

The state fire marshal’s office was contacted to help determine the cause of the blaze, but due to the extent of fire damage, the cause is undetermined, according to a news release Wednesday afternoon from Shannon Moss, spokesperson for the Maine Department of Public Safety.

Town tax records indicate the home is owned by Rhonda Smith.
