A neighbour, who asked not to be named, said: "The people who own the house live in France and the couple who were renting it are due to move out this weekend so it is really bad timing. They had only just had the carpets cleaned as well."
It is understood that the fire was started by a fuse box and that damage was caused to the roof and bathroom.
The owner's belongings, which were in boxes, we're retrieved from the loft space safely.
The fire crews left at 5.15pm.
