These are the 5 best houses in The Block's history and we won’t be told otherwise.

We've loved, despised and revelled in watching The Block since it first came to our TV screens in 2003. Now we're 19 seasons in and there is absolutely no going back. 

That's right, it's been 19 years of jaw-dropping room reveals, mind-blowing drama and some not-so-surprising-but-how-the-hell-did-you-make-the-most-money winners. 

In saying that, we officially kicked off with season 19 of The Block late last month and it's got us thinking about all the winners, losers and everything in between that has come before. 

Watch the trailer for The Block 2023. Post continues after video. 

And we want to remember some of the best houses that ever came out of the reality reno program. 

Here are five of the best houses on The Block. 

Josh and Elyse, 2017.

Of course, Josh and Elyse deserve a special mention after absolutely dominating the reality renovation program four years ago. It's hard to forget the pair who blew judges, viewers at home and even Foreman Dan away every single week. 

Thankfully, the married couple got some sense and realised they had to put their gifted renovation skills to use because they have their own designing, building and construction company.

Oh, and they're also parents to two sons!

Tess and Luke, 2019.

Tess and Luke were the youngest couple when they came on to The Block 2019. They didn't have the easiest ride on the reality show after finding issues with their carpenters, tilers, plasterers and even their building team. 

For the first two weeks into their build, the pair weren't even able to finish their designated spaces. 

Oh, and they also had major budgeting issues! 

Nonetheless, the pair were able to pull together one of the most unique homes ever renovated on The Block. 

These days, Tess and Luke are renovating their own dream home and are the very proud parents of their daughter Cleo, who was born in 2021.

Andy and Deb, 2019.

You might remember Andy and Deb for their timeless terrace house built in 2019 when they competed on The Block.

The pair had an interesting journey and while they didn't take out the win, they did walk away with some crucial reno experience and a newfound passion for interior design. 

These days, the pair are certified interior decorators and designers.

Karstan and Maxine, 2014.

Karstan and Maxine were fan favourites when they battled on The Block in 2014. 

Their build was memorable for its maximalist design and at the time, the couple were competing in the biggest reno ever seen on the show. 

Karstan and Maxine didn't win but their terrace and courtyard were definitely something to revel in. 

Nowadays, the couple are renovating their own van as they travel the country with their daughter Zuri. The pair also announced they are expecting a second child together in January 2023. They often update their 70,000 fans on Instagram with updates of their reno (which you can come along for the ride here, too)!

Harry and Tash, 2020.

Harry and Tash were just one of the five pairs who were forced to build and renovate their properties during COVID -- a challenge that no other contestant had ever faced on the show.  

Despite the setback, the father and daughter duo walked away with some valuable design experience under their belt. 

Tash is a mother of one with her partner Brad, with their son Archie who they welcomed in 2022. She is now expecting a daughter that is due in January 2024.
