Fire investigators will return to the scene of a fire that completely destroyed a Tallai home early on Wednesday morning.

A Queensland Fire and Emergency Services spokesman said crews were called to the address on Glen Rowan Drive about 12.20am and arrived 10 minutes later to find the property “well involved” with flames.

The inferno is believed to have started at the back of the property before quickly spreading, the spokesman said.

Three fire trucks and crews battled for an hour to bring the blaze under control before it was finally extinguished about 1.35am.

All occupants managed to escape the property.

One person was taken to Robina Hospital in a stable condition with minor injuries.

A Queensland Police Service spokesman said the blaze was not being treated as suspicious.
