Plumes of black smoke and flames can be seen coming from Papamoa this afternoon.

Fire and Emergency New Zealand started receiving calls to a "well-involved" house fire in Papamoa at 1.15pm.

Fire and Emergency New Zealand northern fire communications shift manager Kaisey Cook says they have notified police and ambulance.

A caller to the 0800 SUNLIVE news hotline says there is a house fire on Lyn Grove.

Another person on The Strand says they can see large clouds of smoke.

A reader messaged the SunLive Facebook page saying that the fire is getting bigger.

SunLive are working to get more information.
