They arrived to find the house “fully involved in fire”.
A Tasmania Fire Service spokesperson said the blaze was difficult to control, to the point where crews requested a third pumper.
The fire is believed to have been deliberately lit.
Multiple police units remained at the scene on Friday morning as investigations into the incident continue.
The property is the second to go up in flames on the street in recent weeks.
