A crime scene has been set up at the property but police are yet to identify what caused the explosion.
It comes only a day after a suspected drug lab exploded in the garage of a Barden Ridge home in Sydney's south.
Two men aged 37 and 40, who were inside at the time, suffered extensive burns.
Superintendent Julian Griffiths told reporters on Monday afternoon the 40-year-old was undergoing emergency surgery at Royal North Shore Hospital.
"His condition has been listed as critical, and best described as grave," he said.
He said the 37-year-old was also critically injured and remained in an induced coma.
Equipment suspected of being used to manufacture drugs has been found.
