Have you recently completed a self-build, renovation, conversion or extension project? Then we want to hear from you! The Homebuilding &Renovating Awards have been showcasing and celebrating Britain’s best homes for more than 30 years. This year we’re looking for homeowners who have gone above and beyond to create their dream homes tailored for their unique lifestyles. Houses of every size, shape and budget are welcome in the categories (see page 23). Previous winners include a newly built oak frame cottage for £200k, a 1960s modernist property transformed into an energyefficient EnerPHit home, and a contemporary Passivhaus project. Our annual awards aren’t just about putting amazing design in the spotlight, however. They also highlight the hard work and determination of the homeowners, builders, architects, contractors and DIYers who make such individual and interesting homes possible. Entering the awards is a fantastic way to celebrate your build and thank the people involved in creating your new home.

One of the shortlisted projects will be chosen by a public vote to win our prestigious Readers’ Choice Award, and one will be selected by our panel of expert judges to win the overall accolade of Home of the Year 2024 and a £1,000 prize. You’ll also have the chance to have your home professionally photographed to appear in the magazine. It takes just a few minutes to enter online —plus it’s free! We can’t wait to see what you’ve been up to…
