First responders started arriving at the Foss Farm Drive residence at around 10:51 p.m., according to officials. Firefighters with the Orland, Bucksport, Orrington, Penobscot and Castine fire departments worked to contain the blaze for around 5 hours through Sunday night.

The fire was challenging to put out, according to Orland firefighters, with a long haul to the closest water supply, limited resources and frigid temperatures.
