Flames were seen coming from the home just after midnight Saturday on the 2000 block of Mulberry Lane in Whitemarsh Township, Montgomery County.
Firefighters say the woman's neighbor tried several times to get inside the home, but the intense flames were too much.
We've also learned that the flames may have spread because of a possible hoarding situation inside the home.
