A couple who bought the Maryann Lane home just last month wasn't there when the blaze broke out at around 5 a.m., less than an hour before sunrise. 

It went two alarms on arrival as flames engulfed the two-story, wood-frame house.

Burning electrical wires only made matters worse.

Borough police and fire from Norwood, Northvale, River Vale, Closter, Old Tappan, Demarest, Alpine and Emerson provided mutual aid at the scene and in coverage, responders said. 

Members of the Harrington Park Volunteer Ambulance Corps remained at the site for two hours, providing water and Gatorade to the firefighters.

No injuries were reported.
