Officers responded to the 2300 block of Strawberry Mansion Drive around 6:07 a.m. and found the body.
Police did not identify the woman or provide other details about what may have happened.
The discovery marked the second set of human remains authorities found in a fire overnight Wednesday.
Six hours earlier and about 4½ miles away, authorities were called to Frankford Avenue and Bellmore Street in Kensington, where a car was fully engulfed in flames, police said. When the blaze was extinguished, a man police did not identify was found dead inside.
Police did not announce arrests in either case and did not provide descriptions of any possible suspects.
