Kayla Bridger said they were worried for surrounding houses at one point and whether there was anyone trapped inside.
"We weren't too scared as we had another neighbour's house on our fence line burn down in November so it was more like 'oh no not again'.
"The boom was a bit of a shock."
She wanted to give credit to local firefighters, who hit the fire "with everything they had" as soon as they arrived and appeared to get it under control within 20 minutes.
"The house is really black now and nothing looks like it can be saved but that can be replaced, people cannot."
