The Block fans Kyal and Kara list Killarney Vale architectural masterpiece

The Killarney Vale couple Kara and Kyal Demmrich - contestants on Channel Nine's The Block Albert Park series - have listed their NSW Central Coast home.

It is home to the keen surfers and their kelpie Jonah, since they bought in 2008, having married in February 2007.

It has been listed for 24 February auction

Meanwhile the latest Block series The Block Triple Threat fell short in its first real test, beaten by My Kitchen Rules with a 1.59 million debut audience and The Block watched by 802,000, in Monday night's OzTam ratings. I am a Celebrity - Get Me Out Of Here - was watched by 755,000.

Agent Chantel Laing-Chadwick at George Brand Real Estate Avoca Beach/Copacabana says its is an "architectural masterpiece".

She emphasised the soaring high ceilings and generous use of open plan living.

"This cleverly designed home is drenched in sunlight from the floor to ceiling windows," said Laing-Chadwick.

It features four bedrooms, plus a study and separate loft area. 

There is a level 715 square metre block with room for a pool. 

Last year the couple appeared in The Block: Fans v Faves as the so-called Super Ks.

Around the time of the April Albert park auction, the couple indicated they were planning to launch a boutique renovations company called Diverse Design and Construct. The couple also suggested they were considering a move from their home in the Tuggerah Lakes precinct.

“We haven’t thought about it too seriously, but our long term goal is to get ourselves as close to the coast as possible. So we’re thinking about selling, maybe in the next 12 months," Kyal told Property Observer.

The Super Ks were given the highest reserve of any apartment – $1.9 million – after a stellar number of winning challenges and room reveals.

But they finished third behind Steve and Chantelle and Alisa and Lysandra on auction day.

None the less they indicated they could pay off the mortgage with their $567,250 in prize money.

And the couple started their own business to help others with home renovations, a goal they had before entering the show.
