The blaze apparently ignited on a rear deck and quickly spread through the 2½-story, wood-frame Village Circle West home around 5 a.m.
A couple and their two daughters -- ages 4 and 8 -- all got out OK, neighbors said.
The family, who'd moved in about a year ago, watched in their pajamas as the flames destroyed their home, they said.
Firefighters had the bulk of the blaze knocked down within an hour and a half. Little was left once it was declared under control shortly after 7 a.m.
An official cause wasn't immediately determined.
Mutual aid responders included firefighters from Maywood and River Edge.
