The Gills had lived in the home for three years and had carried out extensive renovations.
Mr Gill's 1971 MG MGB, which he said would be "impossible to replace", was parked in the garage and was destroyed.
He also lost several thousand dollars worth of musical equipment, including five guitars.
Mr Gill is a type 1 diabetic and lost his medical equipment and medication.
Mrs Gill lost jewellery that had been passed down to her by relatives.
The house had no smoke alarms but the Gills were insured.
Fire safety officers are investigating.
