The blaze caused the top floor of the two-storey Woodridge home to collapse.
One of the house’s two occupants made it out safely, but a man was declared missing.
Police declared a crime scene but searches of the property were held up by asbestos being present in the building, a spokesman said.
Queensland Police later confirmed the body of a man was located inside the burned house.
No neighbouring properties were damaged by the fire, which was reported just after midnight.
