She was found at the address on the fourth of 11 floors at the block St John Street, in Netherton, Dudley.
Firefighters were called by paramedics at 4.20pm yesterday.
A West Midlands Fire Service spokesman said: "There had been a fire in the kitchen, although this was out when we arrived. At this stage it's not clear when the fire occurred. Our fire investigators will be working to establish this, as well as the cause."
Area Commander Simon Shilton said: "The fire was confined to the kitchen, and the lady was found in the lounge. It is too early to say how she died, and whether her death was linked to the fire. Our sympathies are with her family and friends."
