It's believed to have started outside but quickly spread to a pair of semi-detached homes on Lavender Gardens.
Six fire engines, including from Warrington, Penketh (x2), Widnes, Birchwood, Lymm and an aerial ladder platform were called out initially.
A cordon is in place and people nearby are being told to keep windows and doors shut because of the smoke.
