Have you transformed a city semi?

Maybe you’ve renovated a country barn or given your family home a whole new look?

If so, RTÉs Home of the Year is back for Series Nine and they’re hunting for Cork homeowners to take part.

Leesiders have featured prominently in previous series of the show. Last year Sinead Murphy’s stylish renovated Cork City Centre home wowed the judges, earning it a place in the Home of the Year final.

“Home of the Year is looking for homes to feature in its upcoming series and it’s all about what makes your home special,” they told us.

“The show champions creativity, so, whether it’s a re-imagined cottage, an architectural new build, or an apartment full of personality, we want to hear from you.”

The series will see three expert judges visit three homes each episode. They will tour each home giving it a score out of 10 and the home that receives the highest score in the episode will go through to the final of Home of the Year, where the judges will crown the winner.
