Fire Chief Brian Moriarty said the two women, one in her 20s and one in her 40s, were found outside the home.

"They seemed to be pretty severe, but I didn't get to see them. I just was told they were burned pretty badly," said Moriarty.

Both sides of the building were severely damaged.

The cause of the fire is not known.
