Structure fire at Aldinga Beach - 29 October 2024

CFS crews were called to a structure fire at a two-story residential property in Aldinga Beach, approximately 45 km south of Adelaide along the Fleurieu Peninsula this evening.

Five CFS trucks, with approximately twenty firefighters arrived on scene to find a bedroom on the second story alight with flame, causing an estimated damage of $100,000. However, firefighters successfully extinguished and contained the fire within the bedroom, effectively preventing any further spread of fire within the property.

Property occupants were home at the time of the incident but had been alerted by a working smoking alarm and had vacated prior to CFS arrival, with no injuries reported.

SA Police are supporting crews on scene, who will likely remain for some time to mop up the area. 

Fire Investigators have been notified, with no cause yet determined.
