A woman who was inside the home at the time, believed to be Mr Walker's wife, 'saw smoke coming from the back of the dishwasher,' police said.
The blaze broke out in Forbes Street, Hawthorne just after 8pm on Saturday night, destroying one house and damaging two more.
Police say the fire is not being treated as suspicious but that the extent of the damage is hindering investigations.
