THE BLOCK AUCTIONS on 9

20th October 2025

IT’S TIME TO SELL THE HEARTLAND 

WILL ALL FIVE HOUSES GO?

THE BLOCK AUCTIONS THIS SUNDAY, 26 OCTOBER AT 7.00PM ON CHANNEL 9 & 9NOW

After a monumental season that saw our Blockheads building brand new, architecturally designed homes in the picturesque town of Daylesford, it’s time to find out who will be crowned winner of The Block 2025, this Sunday at 7.00pm on Channel 9 and 9Now. 

The five couples – Emma and Ben (VIC), Han and Can (WA), Britt and Taz (WA), Alicia and Sonny (QLD), and Robby and Mat (SA) – have poured their hearts and souls into creating homes that reflect Daylesford’s unique country-meets-contemporary style. With identical floor plans, every detail, every finish and every styling choice has been a critical decision in their quest to sell the Daylesford dream to the highest bidder and take out the competition.

This season has offered everything from secret wine cellars to the biggest challenge prize in Block history, a Block baby, and a whirlwind 12 weeks of building and friendship drama. Now these turnkey luxury homes will be the perfect purchase for buyers seeking a tranquil, tree-change escape, with showstopping features. 

Will the property market in Daylesford, a town that has embraced the show with open arms, deliver record-breaking profits? Who will turn up to auction? Who will take home the $100,000 prizemoney?

Host Scott Cam said: "After 12 weeks of hard work, it’s incredible to see these Blockheads transform their visions into stunning homes. The scale of this season’s build has been enormous and these teams have truly been put to the test.

“Auction day is the most nerve-racking day of the year for me. This is a life-changing weekend for our teams and they have all put in the effort to deserve an incredible result.”

Domain National Managing Editor Alice Stolz, who breaks down the property market, says: “Sellers are in a good spot right now. Interest rates are lower, clearance rates are higher and overall supply is decent. We’re seeing a lift in buyer enquiry across regional Victoria, particularly in commutable lifestyle hubs like Daylesford.

“But things can get tricky if sellers overbake what their homes are worth. Deals are not getting done if sellers are dreaming.

“This year’s Block contestants have delivered something truly extraordinary, large, beautiful and architectural homes in the heart of one of Victoria’s most charming towns. There’s nothing out there like it. Let’s hope enough buyers are ready to lock it in.”

Executive Producer Julian Cress shares the praise for this year’s contestants. He said: “There is no doubt that our contestants have built five incredible homes, in what we have discovered is one of the best country towns and communities in Australia. 

“We would be very hopeful that people who have watched this series realise just what an amazing thing it would be to buy one of these homes and join the community in Daylesford.

“We are trying to do something that has never been done before, auction five high-end homes in Daylesford on the same day. And while the homes all deserve to sell well and command high prices, we are not certain that we can do it in one day. But we hope to.

“So as usual, we are as nervous as we always are going into a Block auction. Whatever happens on the day, on behalf of our entire cast and crew we would like to sincerely thank the people of Daylesford for welcoming us to their beautiful town.”  

Since premiering on Channel 9 in 2003, The Block, Australia’s richest reality program, has awarded a total of $39,627,139.63 in prize money.
