The couple have been spending time renovating their recently purchased 1970s house in Newport where they paid a reported $1.7 million. 

A controversial pair on the show last year, known for stirring some drama, Mitch and Mark were the favourites to win The Block, but they ultimately finished last.

The stylish granddads won a healthy prize money of $384,000 despite the disappointing finish.
