A neighbour told the Mail they believe the fire started just before 7am after they heard an explosion from the vicinity of the property.
Another neighbour said that the squatters had been living in the house without utilities.
"We've been driving past it (the house) for so long thinking - what's going to happen?", they said.
"I understand that the power and water were cut off but they were still living there."
Emergency services have now extinguished the blaze - more information to come.
