Fire crews from four departments responded to a fire today that damaged one of North Ridgeville’s oldest homes.
The home, at 6050 Otten Road, was built in 1849, according to a sign that said “The Masny’s” and identified it as a century home.
According to the Lorain County auditor’s office, the home was built in 1895 and is owned by Frank Masny.
The fire, which was reported about noon, caused extensive damage to an addition over a garage in the back of the house. The main part of the home appeared to have smoke damage. A hole was cut in the roof of the main part of the house to ventilate smoke.
Firefighters from Sheffield Village, Avon, North Ridgeville and Elyria responded.
