Multiple fire crews have been called to a house fire in the West Auckland suburb of Rānui.

Fire and Emergency New Zealand said crews received several calls about the incident at 4.22pm.

“Four crews were sent to the scene and upon arrival, we found the single-storey house well involved,” a shift manager told the Herald.

“All people are accounted for and crews have called for a fire investigator.”

On Facebook, one person described the fire as “absolutely massive”.

“Fire brigade took what seemed a while to get there as the house was well engulfed in flames before a truck arrived.”
