The Block judge Darren Palmer is offloading his luxury homes in Byron Bay and Bondi Beach.
Interior designer and The Block judge Darren Palmer and his husband Olivier Duvillard have not only listed their Bondi Beach home, but their Byron Bay retreat has also been quietly listed for sale.

Palmer and Dullivard bought the former single-level Californian bungalow for $2.98m in 2015, when the couple were moving from Edgecliff.

The interior designer collaborated with architect John Deuchrass and construction company Taste Living in 2022 to rebuild much of the existing house. The four-bedroom, four-bathroom home on Sir Thomas Mitchell Rd, comes with a heated pool plus four landscaped subtropical garden zones.
“State-of-the-art design, high-end finishes and an incredible layout perfect for multi-generational living unite in this flawlessly crafted residence to deliver the ultimate in laidback luxury and arguably Bondi’s most inspiring brand-new home,” the marketing for the home reads.
The Bondi home has a heated pool.
And a $9.5m price guide.

The home is just a few minutes walk to Bondi Beach.
Palmer’s first TV gig came in 2009, the year before he met his husband, who works in the cosmetics industry.
They married in South Africa in 2011, and again in Australia in 2017, and mostly share the home with their dogs, Frankie the French Bulldog and Ziz, a Brussels Griffon.
