An Garda Siochana spokesperson said: “The body of an adult person has been discovered inside the premises.
“A post-mortem will be conducted to determine the cause of death, which will determine the course of any Garda investigation.”
The scene has been preserved for forensic examination and gardai are appealing for anybody with any information on this house fire to contact them.
The young boy’s grandmother also received hospital treatment for serious burn injuries in the first blaze.
