After tying for first place in last weekโs holiday home challenge, Bronik and Corrineโs good form continued with the Victorians taking out the first semi-final.
Here’s whatย judges Wendy Moore andย Joe Snellย had to say:
Bronik and Corrine — 17/20
The pair earned 17 points for overhauling team NSWโs front exterior. They impressed with a modern front fence and a diagonal wooden path, giving Steveโs yard an angular and contemporary look. โYou guys delivered a really fantastic front garden,โ said Wendy. โGreat design, great ideas and great execution.โ
Steve and Tiana — 14/20
NSW and South Australia tied for second place with 14 points, joining forces to transform Ben and Danielleโs red-brick eye sore into a French Riviera masterpiece. Steve and Tiana worked on team Queenslandโs front yard, using boulders and stairs to create different levels heading up to the front door. They also splurged on a luxe outdoor setting in the courtyard to create a French inspired retreat. โYou guys instantly changed the street appeal of that home,โ said Wendy.
Ryan and Marlee — 14/20
Ryan and Marleeย renovated the Brisbane backyard, creating a raised deck area and a separate alfresco lounge area. โYour decked area was great,โ said Wendy. โAnd the decision to put that retractable awning was a really good design choice.โ But their furniture choices cost them points. โThe lounge whilst a great idea in terms of design, the aesthetic was nowhere near French Riviera and that was just disappointing,โ said Joe.
Ben and Danielle — 13/20
Ben and Danielle were not up to their usual high standards finishing last on 13 points. The newlyweds were tasked with transforming Steveโs massive backyard. Their design included a timber deck and paved outdoor lounge area with a fire pit. โWhilst part of the design worked beautifully, it really didnโt have a clear vision,โ said Joe.
The second semi-final showdown kicks off Sunday at 7pm with the final garden reveals on Monday at 7.30pm. Forย moreย House Rules.

I quite like the way Steve and Tiana transformed the backyard. It does have an upmarket feel to it
