A devastating fire early on December 26th destroyed a farmhouse on a property in Levanger, Norway.

The blaze, which started in the basement and spread to all floors, left the building completely uninhabitable.

Ann-Margot Nørholm, who runs the farm, managed to evacuate her father safely after being alerted by a fire alarm.

No injuries were reported, and the fire was contained to the single building, sparing nearby structures and livestock.

Authorities suspect old Christmas tree lights near the entrance may have caused the fire.

The local fire department urges everyone to check their home fire safety during the holiday season.

Police are investigating the incident.
