FRV Firefighters arrived on scene within minutes to find flames issuing through the roof of the single storey, brick veneer house in Mulgrave on Friday afternoon.
Crews arrived at the Franconia Court scene at 2.18pm.
Confirming that no one was inside, firefighters aggressively fought the fire externally to bring it under control in 50 minutes.
The cause of the fire was likely to be a lithium-ion battery on charge.
EnergySafe Victoria and FRV Fire Investigators have been informed.
The house has been severely damaged.
FRV Firefighters remained on scene into the evening to fully extinguish the blaze.
