Police are appealing for witnesses as they investigate a house fire in Goulburn yesterday.

About 3.30pm (Saturday 20 February 2016), emergency services were called to the house on Lithgow Street after receiving reports of a fire.

Fire & Rescue NSW officers extinguished the fire; however the property was completely destroyed.

Officers attached to The Hume Local Area Command attended and established a crime scene, which will be forensically examined.

No one was injured during the incident.

While inquiries are continuing, initial investigations have led police to believe the blaze may have been deliberately lit.

Any witnesses, or those with information, are urged to come forward and contact Crime Stoppers.
