A property in Kilkenny is set to feature as a finalist on the upcoming episode of Home of the Year airing on RTÉ One on Tuesday, March 31. 

The news comes not long after two other Kilkenny homeowners (Trish Duffe and Sean Hickey) featured on The Great House Revival - another popular national series.

Vivienne and Enda live in County Kilkenny with their two daughters and dog and purchased the site for their new build in 2022.

Over the next few years, Enda and Vivienne worked together to create their forever home, with Enda centring on the exterior while Vivienne focused on the interiors.

The result is a stunning modern dormer bungalow finished with a white render.

The couple favour a transitional style which mixes classic shapes, clean lines, neutral palettes and varied textures.

The family love that they have created a space to entertain and bring all their friends and loved ones together.

HOME OF THE YEAR SERIES 12

Series 12 of Home of the Year was completed before judge Hugh Wallace’s death.

Hugh had been a judge on the programme since its inception and will be remembered for his warmth and humour, and for consistently capturing the hearts of viewers.

Award-winning architect Amanda Bone of DTA Architects returns for her sixth series as a judge, and award-winning interior consultant Siobhán Lam, founder of April and the Bear, for her second.

HOW IT WORKS

Each week, the judges will visit three exceptional homes and score them out of 10 based on individuality, functionality, and clever design.

The home with the highest combined score in each episode will advance to the grand final in April, where one lucky homeowner will be crowned the winner of the series.

Home of the Year airs Tuesdays at 7pm on RTÉ One & RTÉ Player.
