The Block 2024 winners Maddy and Charlotte Harry are looking to flip their recently completed New Lambton project. The sisters believe they can reap a $1.2m to $1.32m sale outcome on the project they began in May.

The three-bedroom, one-bathroom weatherboard home is the fourth renovation they have undertaken in the Newcastle region.

Set on 399sq m, the house was bought at a March auction for $809,000 when it was offered for the first time in four decades. It was bought in Charlotte’s name.

The project was budgeted to cost $216,000, with their original goal price being set as $1.18m – marking a $155,000 gross profit.

“No TV-sized budget, no huge production,” the duo advised when announcing the project on YouTube.

“Just us, working with a mid-range budget and showing what’s achievable for everyday Aussies.”

They originally planned a 13-week challenge for the residence, hoping to be ready for market by the end of July.

However, its progress was slowed, in part, by a holiday to Europe.

Unlike the Channel 9 show, the duo have attracted significantly fewer viewers with their weekly postings.

They have between 2000 to 8000 views per video on their YouTube channel.

It’s the fourth reno they have done in Newcastle.

It has a $1.2m – $1.32m price guide.

Their minor changes to the floor plan included swapping the living room and bedroom.

The pair were aged 22 and 24 when they won The Block series, with take-home prize windfall from their house renovation on Victoria’s Phillip Island being $1.65m.

Their first house project at Wallsend, on the outskirts of Newcastle in 2020, cost $510,000.

It was in Maddy’s name after she saved for a deposit – while a student at Brigidine College St Ives – by babysitting, tutoring and working shifts at McDonald’s.
