A house fire has destroyed a property in Paraparaumu over night.
Fire central communications shift manager Murray Dunbar said fire services were called to the blaze on Seaview Road in Paraparaumu around 11pm last night.
Four fire trucks battled the blaze and the property was "severely damaged", Mr Dunbar said.
A fire truck remained at the scene overnight, and fire investigators would now work to establish the cause of the fire, he said.
