The stunning home of The Block winners Jimmy and Tam Wilkins has finally sold for a whopping $4million, The Herald Sun reports. 

According to the publication, the sprawling four-bedroom home in Melbourne’s Brighton was purchased by a family last week. 

The Palm Springs-inspired pad was at the centre of the ‘conwoman’ scandal, where cyber security expert Emese Fajk had purchased the home at auction in November but failed to pay up.

In addition to its unique 1950s-inspired style, it features five bedrooms, a designer kitchen and a stylish outdoor entertainment area with a pool and barbecue. 

Earlier this month, Jimmy and Tam revealed they will still be getting their prize money after the sale of their $4.2million property fell through last year. 

During an Instagram Q&A, Jimmy and Tam revealed their home in Melbourne’s Brighton hadn’t yet found a buyer but they would nonetheless be getting their record-breaking $966,000 prize money.

One fan asked the couple: ‘Has The Block house sold yet?’

‘It hasn’t sold but Channel Nine and The Block are honouring our prize,’ the pair said at the time. 

In January, New Idea magazine claimed The Block host Scott Cam had ‘saved the day’ by secretly purchasing the $4.2million home for himself after the original buyer, Ms Fajk, 28, failed to pay up.

However, his manager Chris Giannopoulos told Daily Mail Australia the rumours were ‘not to believed’ and that Scott did not purchase the property.

Emese Fajk was the mystery buyer who bought Jimmy and Tam’s winning property during The Block’s auction finale in November.

Ms Fajk presented alleged receipts of bank transfers indicating the money for the home had gone through, but the large sum never reached Nine’s bank accounts.

She has since been accused by an ex-lover of doctoring bank slips.

In December, Jimmy and Tam choked back tears as they told A Current Affair how they’d been left blindsided by the strange turn of events.

‘It’s something no one ever saw coming, no one ever expected, but it’s something we now have to deal with,’ Jimmy said.
