The Block’s Ronnie and Georgia’s house listed for rent
Block fans, you’re in luck - Ronnie and Georgia’s stunning Hampton house is available to rent, but you’ll have to hoard your pennies for the privilege: rent costs almost $10,000 a month!
The four-bedroom home, located at 2 Bronte Court in Melbourne’s affluent beachside suburb of Hampton, is available to rent for $2300 a week, is fully furnished, and is available from December 6. The asking rent is more than double the suburb’s median rental price for a four-bedroom property, which is around $1100 per week.
The listing comes just weeks after the house was sold to an investor for $3.696 million, netting Ronnie and Georgia $296,000 more than reserve.
The West Australian couple won the most challenges and rooms on the show throughout the season.
Features in the home include a completely revamped kitchen with three ovens, an integrated coffee machine, garden servery, induction cooktop and a butler’s pantry.
In addition, there’s a basement cinema with a starry ceiling, a modern bathroom with a freestanding bath, and a terrace with a built-in barbecue. Other highlights include high ceilings, herringbone oak floors, hydronic heating, a pool, and a two-car garage.
The home was a favourite of the Block judges’, and was the most viewed of all five properties.
Belle property manager Stefan Joannides said the property received an unusual level of interest for a rental listing at that price point, with only private inspections held for serious prospective tenants.
Mr Joannides said, “It’s an unusual amount of enquiry for a property at this level. We deal with high end properties all across Bayside and you don’t get eight people come to an inspection over the weekend.
“But a few people that have come through are internationals and they have no idea what the show is. It just goes to show that the properties do speak for themselves.”
