Block: Scott Cam's renovated Gisborne property finally sells for 2022 tree change season – realestate.com.au

Scott Cam's renovated home from the 2022 season of The Block has finally sold for less than any other home on the show after more than a year on the market.

Although the sale price of the property, which will be sold on New Year's Eve 2024, is not official, local talk first suggested that it was sold for around $3.75 million.

That sale price would be the lowest of any house built for the show's tree-changing season in Gisborne – won by Omar and Oz – whose property sold to Danny Wallis for $5,666,666.66.

Permanent Block bidder Frank Valentic, director of Advantage Property Consulting and attorney for the buyers, previously told The Herald Sun that 207 McGeorge Rd would be popular.

He also showed buyers through Camalot when The Block aired in 2022, with some commenting “it's the best house on the show”.

The property covers over 4 acres and the cottage was originally built in 1866.

The renovation, led by Cam, added an extension to the house, landscaping and an in-ground pool to create a luxurious country retreat.
