Let’s see, no defensible space, trees/bushes right up to/overhanging the building, looks like some of the trees are/were eucalyptus (oily torches), no roof top sprinklers or water tank, and the list goes on. Note the house in the upper left has a lawn (defensible space), tile roof and probably stucco walls and is still standing.

Yet I’ve also seen houses with the recommended precautions burn too. The fire, fuel, terrain, and wind ALL have a hand in it.

What I am seeing is the house is burned, but no signs of fire in any of the brush or trees around the house?

I went back and looked at it on something larger than a phone screen, to my eye there is fire damage to the pampas grass clumps and continuing to the left of the image, but not total destruction like I’ve seen in some of the catastrophic fires up here. To be honest I’m hard pressed to make the call about the vegetation burn causing or being caused by the structure fire.

But my earlier points are still valid on the lack of fire Resistant landscaping. If I were still on an Engine and doing pre-planing she would have received a packet of recommendations and we would log our observations.
