Courtney and Sev won The Block 2026 after their Mount Eliza home sold for $4.72 million, netting a $1.27 million profit.

Courtney and Sev have won The Block 2026 after their Mount Eliza home sold for $4.72 million in the Sunday night finale, netting a $1.27 million profit. The best friends were in tears after their House 4 auction delivered the standout result of the night, comfortably securing victory in a season where buyers arrived ready to spend heavily.

The finale proved significantly stronger than the previous year, when two homes were passed in and profits were considerably thinner. Adam and Jolene, the first team to auction, set an early benchmark by selling for $3.955 million with a $455,000 profit after an opening bid from regular Block buyer Danny Wallis immediately placed them above reserve. Each home carried a reserve of $3.45 million, though Rick and Tayla had reduced theirs by $50,000 after winning the final front yard and facade challenge.

The public disclosure of reserve prices a week early had raised questions about whether buyers might hold back. Instead, the finale delivered a brighter outcome, with Courtney and Sev's auction gathering speed in a rush and climbing well beyond half a million dollars in profit before finishing at $4.72 million.
