Less than a month after The Block 2024 wrapped on November 10, contestants Courtney and Grant announced their next project. “Now we need a new challenge and we’re looking at renovating or building next year,” Grant said in an Instagram reel. “We’ve made a few calls and locked in a few things,” added Courtney.
The furniture designer and landscaping business manager shared snippets of their hunt for land or a house to imbue with their signature style. “House hunting day one,” they shared on December 7, 2024, with an image of a house’s arched outdoor area.
“The other option is to build from scratch, which excites me a little more,” they shared with a video of land and lush greenery. The couple is from Sydney and they haven’t indicated they’re planning on moving away from their usual stomping grounds but we do know they’re cashed-up and ready to buy.
The runners-up of the 20th season walked away with $1.35 million in winnings after their Moditerranean-style home sold for $3.3 million at the auction. Yet it seems they haven’t exactly been putting their feet up since Scott Cam called the final “tools down” and the cameras stopped rolling earlier in the year.
“It wasn’t really a break,” they shared. “Courtney launched a whole new collection on The Lazy Stylist.” The collection is bang on trend with the announcement of Pantone’s 2025 Colour of the Year as Mocha Mousse. We’ll have to stay tuned for more life updates but if their track record is anything to go by, this home will be a project to watch in 2025.
