A triple alarm fire was reported on Sargent Road

Photos from the scene show smoke billowing from the large colonial-style brick house as firefighters use aerial ladders and hoses to put out the flames.

The single-family home is valued at $13 million and was purchased in 2012 for more than $3 million, according to city appraisal records. The 13,000 square foot residence is two and a half stories tall.

The six-bedroom, nine-bathroom residence was built in 1928, according to city records.

According to a post from Cambridge Fire X, the Cambridge Fire Department responded to the fire on the second alarm to provide mutual aid.

This is a breaking story and will be updated as more information becomes available.
