Tasmania Fire Service and Tasmania Police are attending a house fire on Meander Valley Road at Carrick.
The fire was reported about 2.45pm on Wednesday.
Two units from Carrick and one from Westbury are attending the fire, while police are diverting traffic through Oaks Road.
A spokesperson from Tasmania Fire Service said the house looked as though it was engulfed by the flames, and it was too early to tell how much damage was done.
The owner was home at the time of the fire, but was uninjured.
