We're told that the person was transported to the hospital for smoke inhalation and burns. They are in critical condition.
Chesterfield Fire Chief Craig Miller said fighting the fire was difficult because of the house was back off the road.
"It was a challenge, but the crews overcame it quite quickly. It was laid back, probably about a quarter of a mile back off the main road there," Miller said.
