A fire at a Lake Tarawera property has been extinguished.
A Fire and Emergency NZ spokesman said multiple crews battled the 20m by 10m fire at a two-storey dwelling on Spencer Rd this morning.
The fire was now out and crews were dampening down hot spots.
Initial reports came in around 8.15am of a fire in a carport attached to a house, a police spokeswoman said.
