The tenth series of much-loved property series Home of the Year starts Tuesday 20th February at 8.30pm on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player.
Since first appearing on screens in 2015, Home of the Year has celebrated the creativity and individuality of homeowners all over the country. Clever design and inspiring interiors will be showcased as viewers take a peak inside another 21 gorgeous homes located across the country.
The series will feature re-imagined semi-detached homes, renovation projects, architectural homes, restored period homes and new builds in locations in Antrim, Clare, Cork, Derry, Dublin, Galway, Kildare, Louth, Mayo, Offaly, Waterford and Wicklow.
Kicking off on Tuesday, February 20, at 8.30pm on RTÉ One, the first episode will feature three homes, including an incredible eco-minded self-build home owned by Clare couple John and Kasha.
In 2021 the couple started their journey of building their contemporary house, where they now live with their daughter.
John and Kasha were conscious of the environment when building the home and wanted a grass roof as a place for wildlife and bees to live.
Their home has a natural cooling breezeway designed for the summer months that brings the outside in, and, after working with the Jon Eliason Studio in Sweden to draft the concept of the living space and kitchen of their house, they decided on a 20-foot-high ceiling in the main room to allow the spectacular scenery to be a part of the space.
John and Kasha love the sense of detail and functionality they've achieved throughout the home and how they've managed to create something so special that represents their family.

Looking for individuality, functionality, and clever design, the three judges will each score the homes out of 10, and the home with the highest combined score in each programme will go through to the final in April, where the winner will be crowned.
Making the difficult decisions are the returning judging panel of architect and founding partner of Douglas Wallace Consultants, Hugh Wallace, award-winning architect Amanda Bone and award-winning interior designer Sara Cosgrove.
The series airs on Tuesdays at 8.30pm on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player starting from February 20, 2024.
