The Victoria Fire Department responded to a house fire on Salisbury Lane Saturday morning.
Three fire engines, two medical units and two support vehicles reported to 413 Salisbury Lane about 6:09 a.m., said David Kahlich, battalion chief with the Victoria Fire Department.
Firefighters extinguished the fire before it spread from the attic, Kahlich said.
A moderate amount of damage was caused by first responders using water and removing ceiling tiles to snuff out the flames.
The family living in the house was out of town at the time of the fire, Kahlich said.
The home is owned by Donald and Margaret Rice and is valued at $176,754, according to Victoria County Appraisal Court records.
The cause of the fire was under investigation Saturday.
