Crews spent approximately seven hours at the scene before leaving after ensuring the area was made safe.
Fire crews were called to a property in Cambuslang on the outskirts of Glasgow on Friday afternoon to reports of a dwelling fire.
The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service said it mobilised four appliances to extinguish the blaze after finding the timber frame of the four-bedroom home on Langlea Drive “well alight” on arrival. Reports suggest the property caught fire after the sun reflected on a discarded pane of glass on the front lawn.
