The Block stars reveal latest ‘adventure’

The Block’s controversial ‘replacement couple’ have unveiled their latest project.

Rachel and Ryan Carr have a new ‘adventure’.

Rachel and Ryan Carr, the replacement contestants on The Block in 2022, have bought in Sylvania after selling in Oyster Bay.

They have secured a four-bedroom, one-bathroom house for $1.62m in the heart of the Shire.

“We won’t leave the Shire,” Rachel affirmed during the marketing of their Oyster Bay home.

The Sylvania purchase was well under the suburb’s four-bedroom median, which PropTrack puts at $1,807,500 based on 52 sales over the past year.

It had previously traded in 2010 for $750,000.

The couple, who now run The R&R Design Co, secured $2,725,000 in Oyster Bay after having an adjusted $2.7m asking price for their Mediterranean-inspired home.

There had been initial $2.8m hopes for the four-bedroom, three-bathroom home, which the couple had renovated before they were late starters on The Block Tree Change in 2022.

“We love this house so much, but the time has come to start a new adventure” Rachel told her 42,000 Instagram followers.

“While we absolutely love doing renos for all our amazing clients, what we love the most is renovating our own place … and we’ve renovated all we can here. This house has been so good to us.

“It’s the first home our family of five has known,” she said.

They had paid $1.68m in 2019.

“Over the years we’ve renovated the bathrooms, laundry, staircase, alfresco … but our biggest renovation happened during Covid, when we turned our pool area into a luxury resort-style oasis complete with cabana, outdoor shower and limestone pavers.”
