From Kmart pillows to priceless art, these are the freebies thrown in for The Block 2016 buyers

When the hammer falls at The Block auctions in Port Melbourne, buyers will score more than bricks and mortar for their multi-million dollar investment.

Every year, the plush apartments come with six-figures — up to around $120,000 — worth of bits and bobs used to decorate the rooms.

This year, the five teams scrimped on $5 planter boxes and splurged on $4000 sofas to finish off their heritage apartments, and buyers will get to keep all of it.

From budget to big ticket, here’s a snapshot of some of the goodies within this season’s apartments …

Karlie and Will’s apartment
The young Queensland couple aimed for an industrial take on art deco, variously labelled “in-deco” and “art-dustrial”. Whatever it’s called, their aesthetic was achieved through leather, timber and understated add-ons.
