Fire crews got the call about 12:45 p.m. Saturday, as witnesses reported heavy smoke in the area.
Teams from Chatham and Raleigh North battled the fire.
The home’s two occupants were taken to hospital for medical care.
The cause of the estimated $500,000 fire is undetermined at this time.
Between Friday and Saturday, local firefighters battled three other fires in the municipality.
