A Warneet garden shed has been gutted by fire on Sunday afternoon, 30 August.

Fire crews were called to the Edgewater Terrace property just after 2.30pm, to reports of smoke issuing from a shed.

About 10 firefighters in breathing apparatus tackled the blaze, which was brought under control within 15 minutes.

A CFA spokesperson said the shed was well alight by the time crews arrived.

No persons were injured and property damage was confined to the shed, the spokesperson said.

The cause of the fire is unknown at this stage.

Eight fire appliances from Tooradin, Casey Group, Devon Meadows, Pearcedale, and Warneet-Blind Bight fire brigades attended the fire as well as supported from Cranbourne Pumper 92.

FRV issued a safety message to the community warning of smoke at nearby roads at the time.
