A fire that ravaged the home of a young family and destroyed "absolutely everything" is being treated as accidental.
Firefighters were alerted to a house fire on Keam Way in Welcome Bay just before 9.20pm on Friday.
The house was "well-involved" and flames and thick black smoke could be seen across Welcome Bay.
No one was injured but the home was destroyed and there has since been an outpouring of support on social media for the family.
Fire and Emergency risk reduction and investigations manager Todd O'Donoghue said the cause of the blaze was yet to be determined, however it was being treated as accidental.
