A Warwick house fire late last night has left a house completely gutted.
The fire ravaged the property on the corner of Quinn and Carmody Streets.
Fire investigation has been on the scene this morning, but no cause is known yet.
Emergency services were alerted to the fire around 11:30pm last night, with all emergency services called to the scene where the house was reportedly “engulfed in flames”.
A neighbour reported that there were three ambulance units on the scene, which was confirmed by Queensland Ambulance Services.
The house was unoccupied and no one required assistance.
Queensland Fire and Emergency Services confirmed that two fire crews attended the scene.
The fire was extinguished around midnight and crews declared the scene safe around 1:15am after they had checked for hotspots.
Some residents were shocked come morning to find the fire scene on their street, saying they hadn’t noticed.
One neighbour said they were woken up to lights at about a quarter to one, while another didn’t notice the blaze at all until they drove past in the morning.
Neighbours gave conflicting accounts of whether the house had been recently occupied.
A car was at the scene, luckily unscathed in the car port next to the house.
Warwick police detective sergeant Glen Roche said that emergency services were alerted after the flames were noticed by a person driving past the house.
The property was reportedly broken into in early June.
Police ask that anyone with information please contact Warwick Police.
