The Block: Triple Threat contestants Jess and Ayden Hogan have sold their dream home for an impressive $300k above the asking price.
Located in Maudsland, Queensland, a short drive to both the Gold Coast and Brisbane, the property attracted 28 offers, the winning bid sealing the deal at $1.9 million.

After their stint on The Block in 2015, the couple collected a cool $655,000 from the sale of their luxury penthouse in South Yarra, Victoria, which they renovated on the show.
The proceeds were then poured into the design and construction of their Queenslander-style home – built on land that they had purchased in 2014 – which after years of blood, sweat, and tears, was finally completed in 2020.

Following their time on The Block, Jess and Ayden went on to star in the short-lived reality series Reno Rumble where they won a further $100,000 – half of which they donated to charity and the rest to a car.
With a price guide of $1.6m plus, the four-bedroom, three-bathroom home sold well above its advertised price guide, much to the delight of the reality renovators.

“The quality of the build, the classic style, and the beautiful layout that was just perfect for families and entertaining attracted a lot of interest,” selling agent Nathan Simon, of All Properties Group said.
“It was clear from the outset that this home was built with a dream in mind, and of course there were some interested parties who knew Jess and Ayden from The Block and wanted to see what they had created here.”

Since the sale of the property, Jess, Ayden, and children Josie, 14, and Thomas, 11, have made the move to a 23.45ha cattle farm in rural Queensland.
“Ayden and I both have a rural background, and I felt if we waited we might miss the opportunity to have the kids grow up around cows and horses and country folk,” Jess told RealEstate.com.
