It’s back to Bondi for The Block home renovation reality series after they sell South Melbourne
The Block renovation television series seems set to return home to Sydney after the current South Melbourne series.
The production company has bought four single-level semis at Bondi, close to the southern end of the coastal strip.
The hush-hush purchase which echoes its previous property acquisitions of four adjacent properties has possibly cost $4.4 million or more. Each of the three-bedroom semis (pictured below) sits on a 260-square-metre holding.
The $1.32 million sale of an adjacent semi indicates its partial renovation potential, although The Block is likely to add a second level subject to council permission.
The next soon-to-air series is set in South Melbourne which commences Monday April 16 features four two-storey terrace houses getting an extra floor. It follows the previous top-rating Richmond series during 2011.
The first series that aired in 2003 was closer to the heart of the beachside strip, on Roscoe Street, Bondi Beach, with four flats undergoing renovation.
It was followed by series at coastal Manly and Vaucluse, where blocks of four flats underwent renovation.
