The remains have been found after an investigation into the disappearance of the toddler, who was not reported missing at the time.
7 News reports the boy lived at the home with his parents and two siblings in 2014, before they moved overseas, possibly to Albania.
The outlet reports police were tipped off by a relative who knew the 18-month-old toddler before his disappearance.
Current residents of the property have no connection to the investigation or to the people who lived at the property at the time.
“Something like this is not supposed to happen but it’s happened 14 years ago. Something very bad. Very terrible,” one resident told 7 News.
An investigation is underway by the Missing Persons Squad.
