Officers made the discovery on Thursday morning after attending a home at Marsfield in Sydney's northwest, on a report of concerns for welfare.

A swing set and netted trampoline could be seen in the home's front yard as detectives moved about the scene, one of them inspecting what appeared to be a surveillance camera.

The two people whose bodies were found inside the home are yet to be formally identified, but they are believed to be a woman in her 50s and a teenage girl.

A crime scene has been established in the quiet suburban area, with police awaiting a post-mortem examination as they investigate the deaths.
