Flames roared out the front door and windows and blew through the roof of the 2½-story wood-frame Summit Avenue house shortly after 8:30 p.m.
The fire immediately went to two alarms, then a third within 10 minutes.
Among those assisting their village colleagues were firefighters from Bogota, Hackensack, Little Ferry and Teaneck.
No serious injuries were immediately reported.
