Watch Home of the Year: Ireland

Five celebrity homes compete for the Celebrity Home fo the Year title, with five well known homeowners, Robert Ballagh, Ramona Nicholas, John Boyne, Jean Byrne, and Eleanor McEvoy inviting us into their homes.

The homeowner finalists assemble as judges Hugh Wallace, Deirdre Whelan and Peter Crowley crown the winner of this year's competition.

Judges Hugh Wallace, Deirdre Whelan and Peter Crowley choose the last finalist for this year's contest from a 1960s Dublin bungalow, a period home in Galway, and a self-build.

The judges examine a derelict church in Co Limerick, an artist's abode and a home originally built in a back garden.

The judges examine a renovated Victorian terraced home in Dublin, a cottage with a modern extension in Louth and a contemporary 'upside-down' house in Dublin.

The judges examine a house converted out of three flats, a contemporary South Dublin home with a black and white colour scheme, and a slate house with sea views in Kerry.

The judges visit a manor in Belfast, a renovated Victorian villa in Dublin and a West Cork writer's retreat.

Architect Robert Logan designed his own home and his parents' next door. He lives with wife Julie and two daughters in a self-build modern Antrim farmhouse. His property is one of three assessed by judges Hugh Wallace, Deirdre Whelan and Peter Crowley, along with abodes in Dublin and Down.
