Sixteen firefighters and four firetrucks are attending a house fire in West Auckland.

Fire and Emergency New Zealand (FENZ) said it responded to calls about a Glen Eden residential building well involved in the blaze just after 3pm on Friday.

The fire had started in the basement, and a second alarm was called upon arrival for extra support, FENZ said.

All people on the property were accounted for, it said.
