Fire authorities said the fire broke out in the lounge room of the home while the sole occupant was inside about 4.30am.
A neighbour reportedly tried to wake the occupant by throwing rocks on his roof, but this was unconfirmed. One fire unit had the blaze extinguished about 5.50am.
The spokesperson said the occupant was not injured, but there was significant damage to the lounge room and two adjoining rooms.
