The Chapel Hill Fire Department responded to a structure fire at 342 W. Rosemary St. at 4:03 p.m. Sunday.
No one was injured by the fire, though damage to the building —which houses Legacy Cuts and Tate Realty — was valued at about $3,000.
The first group of responders found a small fire smoldering in a wall cavity, and a later investigation found that the fire had originated on the exterior of the building and progressed into the wall.
Fire crews — which included 21 fire personnel —were able to quickly contain the fire.
