After dozens of entries and a lot of interiors envy, the Real Homes team have chosen the worthy recipients of this year’s prizes…
MEET THE WINNERS
Spacious extensions, wow-factor renovations and clever makeovers: we’re lucky enough to see the very best homes in the country every day here at Real Homes. It’s an honour – but it also makes it incredibly tricky to cherry pick the winners of our Home of the Year awards. We’ve been truly overwhelmed by the amazing spaces you’ve submitted. And now, we’ve whittled down our shortlist and can reveal who’s bagged themselves a place in our awards hall of fame – and a £1,000 prize…

From a carefully-restored Victorian home to a bold extended kitchen, each of our winners has displayed creative prowess, impressive DIY skills and a real love of design that shows in the resulting spaces. You can explore them all over the next few issues of Real Homes magazine – and in the meantime, take a peek in this feature for a snippet of each.
