House 3 wins The Block 2025

Five houses, five auctions and one winner of The Block 2025. Here’s how the auctions for these five incredible Daylesford homes played out.
 

WA couple Britt and Taz have won The Block for 2025 – the first WA couple to ever do so. The married police officers from the Pilbara managed to score $420,000 plus an additional $100,000 for taking out the highest sale price on the day, which was a remarkable $3,410,000.

Britt and Taz – House 3 – went first in the auction, in a night that had many ups and downs, with Houses 1 and 2 failing to secure a sale on the day.

“You held true, and you should be proud of yourselves,” said host Scott Cam to Britt and Taz, after the hammer fell.

Second prize went to Gold Coast couple Sonny and Alicia of House 4, who ended up pocketing $120,000 above the reserve, followed by best mates Robby and Mat (House 5) with $109,999. Sonny and Alicia were lucky because they benefited from winning the last room challenge (front yard and facade), which meant that they received $50,000 off the reserve, making their reserve $2.940 million. The reserve price for all other houses was $2.99 million.

Sadly both House 1 (Emma and Ben) and House 2 (Han and Can) were passed in – House 1 had a top bid of $2.970 million but was passed in after a vendor bid of $3.1 million, while House 2 was passed in without a single bid over their vendor bid of $3.1 million. Both houses will go on sale on October 27, with some heavy negotiations happening and hopes of securing sales soon.

Britt and Taz went into the auction as firm favourites, with all three judges tipping them as the couple most likely to take out the win.

It was the consistency of the couple’s calm and sophisticated aesthetic, plus their commitment to working hard that won fans and potential buyers. Nicknamed the “wellness house”, House 3 even included a controversial Pilates room instead of a second living area. Their kitchen was a big hit too, with a pared-back palette, generous island bench and prestige appliances.

Open-plan kitchen and dining space from The Block, featuring a vaulted timber ceiling, marble island with bar stools, large fridge, neutral-toned dining area, and floor-to-ceiling curtains.
 
Their outdoor spaces were also popular with the judges, particularly the stone-clad outdoor fireplace featuring the same stone as their living room, and their wellness area, which included a spa, sauna and ice bath.

"For the buyer who wants to live in Daylesford it has to be Britt and Taz,” predicted judge Shaynna Blaze the week before. “It all starts with the entry into the lounge dining, the kitchen with the chef's upgrade in appliances, the master wing that looks out onto the garden and then in the garden with the meandering pathway, wisteria-covered pergola, pool, backyard, sauna, plunge pool, wine tasting room and cabana. I'm there!"

An elegantly designed Pilates studio with four reformer machines arranged symmetrically. The space features white draped curtains on the walls and ceiling, creating a serene ambiance. A pink exercise mat in the center holds pink fitness accessories including an exercise ball, resistance bands, and weights. Two potted plants sit at the far end, and the floor is light-colored wood.  
 

Robby and Mat also scored some praise on the day, especially for their winning backyard, which included plenty of grass, spectacular outdoor fireplace and even a pickleball court.
