Tonight on RTÉ One at 8:30pm, two Dublin homes compete with a 17th Century Wicklow farmstead built by Quakers on Home of the Year.
Victorian end of terrace in South Dublin
Four years ago, interior designer Wesley O’Brien, his wife Patricia and their two daughters, renovated and restored a 19th Century house to its former glory. They spent nine months sourcing original features, and restoring the original layout - including some Victorian pocket doors in the front reception rooms. We can't wait to see the judge's reactions!
Two-up two-down mid-terrace in Dublin
Zita Spring-Holmes and her husband Jamie have put their own unique twist on their Dublin home. Their funky decor includes dinosaur wallpaper and colourful cushions, along with some retro-inspired interior design. We wonder if minimalist Declan will appreciate her retro style?
17th Century farmhouse in Wicklow
Architects Philip and Delphine Geoghegan live in a 17th Century farmhouse originally built by Quakers! The two bought the property in 1994, and have ensured that it retained its charm with gentle restoration and careful conservation. The judges are sure to fall in love with the amazing 17th Century features, including stone inglenook fireplaces, bread ovens, and an original blacksmith's forge.
