Queensland brothers Rhys and Liam Almond have won Dream Home and taken out a $100,000 prize in the season final.
Their tropical backyard renovation scored 37.5 out of 40 points, pipping Lara & Peter on 37 points. Sisters Taeler and Elle scored 31 points.
“Rhys and I are mates, but we got to be brothers again, living under the one roof. Doing this with Rhys was one of the most meaningful and exciting things about the competition,” said Liam.
“We’re coming away from this very proud of every moment, and we’re both walking away as winners.”
“Taking $100,000 off my mortgage is going to be life-changing for myself and my family, and that means the world to me,” said Rhys.
Following the show’s renovation their dilapidated Deception Bay Queenslander is now valued at $1.6 million.
“Boys, I felt like I’d stepped into a complete oasis. You absolutely created a tropical dream out there, perfect for a Queensland setting,” said judge Lana Taylor.
Simon Cohen said, “You created a whole separate living area, which is just a massive tick for any family home.”
Rosie Morley added the pavilion’s scale in relation to the home, all “worked in harmony.”
| Lana | Rosie | Simon | Couples | ||
| Rhys and Liam | 9 | 9.5 | 9.5 | 9.5 | 37.5 |
| Lara and Peter | 9.5 | 9 | 9 | 9.5 | 37 |
| Taeler and Elle | 8 | 7.5 | 7.5 | 8 | 31 |
Dream Home is produced by Endemol Shine for Network Seven.

Good on them, was good to see one of the singles teams win so the other person that didn’t get the house renovated could take the cash prize and share in the win. The renovations sure were pretty grand with most receiving second stories added to their homes, must have been quite costly to make so hopefully it performed enough for a return next year.
Funnily I kept still referring to it as house rules rather than dream home when talking about it.
It is so consistent, that males win, then female wins, then males win, then … and so on. It just gets so boring and preditable.
Brothers from Qld won House Rules a few years ago too!
