Firefighters sprayed water on the blaze and began searching the home after a woman outside said that someone was inside the structure.
It took 15 minutes for 44 firefighters to knock down the blaze, a department spokesman said.
The victim was found dead. His age was not immediately known. The woman was taken to a hospital for possible smoke exposure.
