Two residents were lucky to escape the Beckwith Street blaze after they were awoken by smoke detectors shortly after 12.50am early Thursday morning.
The occupiers quickly grabbed a fire extinguisher and fought the fire themselves before emergency services arrived.
A number of household items that had allegedly been set alight were damaged beyond repair.
