The Block 2024: Maddy & Charlotte

NSW

Meet Maddy and Charlotte

Maddy and Charlotte are the youngest ever contestants on The Block at the age of 24 and 22. They grew up watching the show with their family every year.

They join the show after Jesse and Paige decided to leave Phillip Island.

EXPERIENCE

Maddy and Charlotte have both worked in multiple jobs growing up, babysitting, tutoring, doing shifts at McDonald’s and piano teaching to make and save money studying at university. Once graduated, they went straight to work in accounting.

But they soon realised they didn’t want to be stuck at a desk, so they kept working multiple jobs and saved up enough money to buy their first house, a shack in Newcastle, when they were 21 and 19 respectively.

They may be the youngest team in the history of The Block, but they are also among the most experienced contestants when it comes to renovations.

The shack in Newcastle has since been renovated, subdivided and sold. They now have three builds on the go with more planned, while still juggling their odd jobs and working in the family business.

They say that growing up watching The Block was what inspired them to become renovators, builders and entrepreneurs in their own right.

Maddy, 24, accounting graduate and house flipper

Maddy knew she didn’t want to be in accounting forever and made the move to buy her first house with Charlotte. She got the building and renovating bug and now uses her accounting skills to help build a budding business with her sister.

Maddy will be the designated interior designer in the team, heading out shopping most days on Phillip Island and in Melbourne.

Charlotte, 22, business graduate and house flipper

Charlotte is our youngest ever contestant on The Block, but no one should underestimate her. She studied for a Bachelor of Business, is hard-working, and knows what she wants.

Charlotte will stay on site during the build and work closely with the tradies. She is a go-getter, and not afraid to roll up her sleeves and get stuck into the heavy lifting – much like she does in their own renovations.

Together

The sisters are strong, independent, and know how to get the job done. They work incredibly well together and wouldn’t be into flipping houses or appearing on The Block with anybody else.

“Charlotte is very practical,” Maddy said. “She is definitely more of the tradie lady and super competent when it comes to any task-orientated things.”

“Maddy is very organised and fantastic at logistics,” Charlotte said. “She is the head designer, and she also wears the pants in the relationship.”
