Scott Cam’s renovated Gisborne house from The Block 2022 has finally sold

It spent more than a year on the market.

Scott Cam has been host of The Block since 2010, but it wasn’t until the show landed in Gisborne, Victoria, in 2022 that he picked up the tools himself, renovating an entire house alongside the contestants and showing us he’s picked up more than a thing or two about interior design along the way. The house that Scott built, aka ‘Camalot’ originally went to market in 2023 with a price guide of $4.1 million to $4.3 million but that has since dropped to $3.8 million to $3.9 million.

But Scotty didn’t complete the renovation entirely on his own. Building company Nine in Six took care of the extension, while former contestants and builders Duncan Miller (from the show’s 2010 and 2013 season) and Spence Thompson (from the 2018 season) were enlisted to bring the old homestead back to life. And while the home was exempt from official judging, last year’s contestants were treated to a tour of a newly completed room each week as inspiration for their own home renovations.

After spending 13 months on the market, Scotty Cam’s Gisborne house sold for an undisclosed price on December 31st 2024. While we don’t know the final price, we know the asking price was between $3.8 million and $3.9 million. You can see the full listing on Domain.

In 2023, winners of weekly room reveals were treated to a night at Scotty’s Gisborne house.

The renovation not only brought the 1866 homestead back from the brink of dilapidation, but saw the addition of modern creature comforts, including Australia’s first 3D-printed building in the form of a curvaceous pool cabana.

Listing agents Evans Realty Group say the 10-acre property’s most appealing aspects include: Baltic pine floors throughout, high ceilings, herringbone brick floors, custom Christian Cole timber island bench and butcher’s block and views of Mount Macedon framed by mature oak and Moreton Bay fig trees.

Cast your mind back to the 2022 season and you might recall that the official price guides for all the homes was $4 million to $4.4 million. For this reason, it was thought that Scotty’s house might beat Oz and Omar’s record. Auction day proved a disastrous affair, with three of five properties passing in. Sharon and Ankur’s home remained on the market for weeks until it was eventually sold to entrepreneur Adrian Portelli for $4.2 million in November, 2022.
