At 11am, Fire Rescue Victoria (FRV) responded to an incident after callers to Triple Zero (000) reported a house fire in Sullivan
Terrace, Burnside.

Crews arrived on scene within seven minutes to find a two-storey brick veneer structure fully alight on the top level and through the roof, so the response was escalated.

Crews working internally were withdrawn after an initial search and attack on the fire due to the threat of imminent collapse.

The incident was deemed under control at 11.44am.

Fire Investigators are attending the scene to determine the cause.

FRV crews will remain on scene for some time to overhaul what has been a significant house fire.
