Fire has destroyed a home at Aberdeen in the Upper Hunter overnight.
Firefighters from Aberdeen, Scone and Muswellbrook were called to the 3 bedroom timber cottage on Gundebri Street just before 12.30am on Wednesday to find the house engulfed in flames.
No-one was home at the time.
It's taken 3 hours for crews to extinguish and mop up the fire which is being treated as suspicious.
