Fire crews responded to the call Sunday at 11:46 a.m. at 1119 Matteo Drive, building three.
Assistant Chief of Operations Thomas Robinson says Wilmington and New Hanover Crews arrived to find a sprinkler controlled balcony fire on the third floor. Units left the scene of the fire by 1 p.m.
Investigators determined the cause was discarded “smoking material” in a flower pot. The home’s vinyl siding was damaged as well as some outdoor furnitues, but the damage was minor.
There were no injuries reported to the family or fire crews.
