Fire Rescue Victoria (FRV) crews responded to several calls of a house fire in Celia Street, Glen Iris, at 11.56am today.

All occupants have safely evacuated and will be assessed by Ambulance Victoria. The fire was deemed Under Control by 12.48pm.

The cause of the fire is not yet known and will be investigated by FRV specialists. Firefighters will remain on scene to ensure the fire is fully extinguished.
