BBC Radio Three Counties reporter Alice Glossop, who was at the scene, said: "Smoke was billowing from the end of terrace building in Fishermead and flames could be seen from the back of the building.
"The smoke spread to the roof of the second terraced property, next to it, and had started coming through the tiles of the third property's roof too.
"Local families crowded around the street and nearby park with a lot of emergency service personnel in attendance, including three fire engines."
