The blaze at the Upper Freehold Township home was reported early Sunday and extinguished a short time later. The body was found around 1:05 a.m., but further details were not disclosed.

It appears that the woman was alone when the fire broke out at the home in the Monmouth County community.

Authorities say the cause of the fire remains under investigation.
