House fire at Glenalta - 4 June 2025

Around 2:45 pm, approximately 10 CFS firefighters in 2 trucks responded to a house fire in Glenalta, located in the Adelaide Foothills. They were supported by SA Police and SA Ambulance Service.

CFS volunteer firefighters successfully contained the blaze to the front of the house and prevented it from spreading further.

Thanks to their quick response, the damage was limited to an estimated $60,000—much less than what could have occurred if the firefighters had not arrived when they did.

All occupants were able to evacuate the house safely before the firefighters arrived, with SA Ambulance Paramedics treating them for smoke inhalation.

The cause of the fire is unknown, and Fire Investigators will attend later today.
