Fire crews are at the scene of a fire which broke out in a two-storey house in Queenstown this morning.
A Fire and Emergency New Zealand spokesman said crews were alerted to the fire in Nugget Knob, Goldfield Heights, about 10.30am, when a worker in a rubbish truck noticed a house on fire.
Crews arrived to find a large two-storey house well involved in fire in the roof area.
Four crews, from Queenstown and Frankton, were still working on the blaze and a Command Unit with further breathing apparatus was on its way from Alexandra, he said.
