The Block 2021: What do you get with the houses?

The houses on The Block are a full package. The new owners won’t be moving into an empty box with just four walls and a roof. Instead, they’re kitted out with everything a new home owner could want or need, from furniture to face washers. 

Here is a list of some of the things that will be included in the purchase.

House 1, Ronnie & Georgia 

Ronnie & Georgia’s home is all about sophistication and luxury. There’s no better pairing than Tom Ford Black Orchid Eau De Parfum, a scent that’s oh-so-bougie! 

Speaking of bougie, there’s no need to travel for wine tasting because you can host one in your own basement. For that, you’ll need wine barrels for the full sommelier vibes. 

While the adults are busy with their drinks, the kids can roast some marshmallows around the campfire. A fancy campfire that is, with this cast iron fire pit. 

It’s nice to see Australian artworks showcased in the Blockheads’ homes. This piece, Marrunga Yubaa (Sweet Rain) by Indigenous artist Lizzy Stageman, represents the beauty of rain falling on the landscape. 

For those interested in opening their heart chakras to connect with their new home, this rose quartz crystal slab is sure to do the trick. 

House 2, Mitch & Mark 

Mitch and Mark went against the grain and built a day spa instead of a home cinema. So, massage oil is essential. Bonus points for the saucy (but fitting) name. 

Want to live farm to table? You can grow your own veggies in this vegepod. 

This little rhino doubles up as storage. It’s both functional and fluffy – a win for you and the kids. 

OK, I’m sensing an animal theme here. Meet Kenny dog bookend – here to guard your books! 

A home can never have enough doggos. Looks like Mitch and Mark live by that motto. But someone really needs to toilet train this naughty pug. 

House 3, Tanya & Vito

Ah, it’s the infamous tongue mirror that divided the judges. But haters gonna hate – it’s art baby! 

I’m impressed that Tanya & Vito found a toilet brush to match their terrazzo interiors. 

Is one supposed to sit on this or put drinks on it? The fact that it’s called a stool suggests the former. But the lack of cushioning tells me otherwise. Maybe it’s both. 

This recliner chair is more like it! Plush and oh-so-comfy. All you need is some popcorn and a movie marathon. 

I’m sold. Tanya & Vito’s house comes with a 3.4 litre air fryer. It’s the mother of all appliances that will surely make the kids happy. 

House 4, Josh & Luke

The American oak dining table by Christian Cole costs a hefty $10,000 and is a feature piece in Josh & Luke’s house. You’d want to take good care of this one. 

Surely this feline fashionista book negates everything the judges said about their house being a bachelor pad. 

Let’s be honest, your dog doesn’t care about architecture – this stylish dog kennel is purely for the aesthetic. I’m so here for it! 

From Cat Couture to Iconic America, you’ll find some interesting reads in Josh and Luke’s home. But if you’d like to know more about the Declaration of Independence, then this is for you.

The moment we’ve all been waiting for. Yes, the Iron Man statue is included, and it’s not cheap. 

House 5, Kirsty & Jesse

A pizza oven is a no-brainer in a big backyard. Even better when it’s rust-proof, self-cleaning and in this glossy copper tone. 

What better way to store and display your precious wine collection than with a luxe Gaggenau wine cooler. Kirsty and Jesse have four of these in their basement cellar. 

Quick! Pop a few of these concrete pears in the fruit basket and see if anyone notices. 

Nautical stripes or the Greek flag? No matter what you see, the watercolour stripes wallpaper is here to stay. 

No Hamptons-style home is complete without a nod to the coast. This light pendant with glass seashells is the cherry on top.
