Emergency crews were called to an apartment block on New Brighton Road, near The Palms Shopping Centre, at about 10pm.
A child was rescued from a second-storey window, and one person was taken to Christchurch Hospital in a serious condition.
The Herald's Pierre Nixon says the damage is concentrated on one apartment in the building -- which is believed be less than 12 months old.
He says there are several children's items among the blackened remains of the property.
