Fire department tankers were also brought in from multiple fire departments including Turn of River, Long Ridge, Banksville, Pound Ridge, New Canaan, Round Hill, Noroton Heights, Darien and Cos Cobb.
Due to significant safety concerns, officials said a majority of the fire was fought from the exterior of the home using master streams.
Firefighters remained at the scene until 2:30 a.m. to extinguish hot spots and then returned later in the morning to work on additional problem areas, firefighters said.
