The family lost all their possessions, aside from a few clothes that could be salvaged, and only one room wasn't affected. New carpet and curtains had recently been installed in the house.
"It's just possessions and I'll get back there again," the homeowner said.
"It'll take me a while because I wasn't insured.
"I'm just thankful my kids got out."
It's believed the fire was possibly sparked by cooking as it started in the kitchen.
The homeowner said they have a big extended family which is helping, alongside neighbours who are offering support.
"[Neighbours] are trying to give us clothes and things like that which is awesome, but there are people out there who need it more than I do."
Rebecca Hamilton, who lives nearby, said the fire was intense and she had never seen anything like it before.
