Fire has destroyed a home at Woodberry overnight.

Six fire trucks from Minmi, Tarro, Mayfield West and East Maitland were called to the single storey weatherboard and tile home on Tahlee Avenue just after 2.00am on Friday to find the unoccupied and boarded-up house engulfed in flames.

It’s taken about 40 minutes to bring the fire under control, with crews wrapping up at the scene just before 4 o’clock.

Police are treating the fire as suspicious.
