Synopsis
IWC Media tell us:
- Following four successful series in Scotland, Home of the Year launches in Wales as three experts scour the nation to find the country's most amazing home. Interior designer Mandy Watkins and architect Glen Thomas will be judging on functionality, distinctiveness and clever design. Joining them is Owain Wyn Evans who has a passion for property and will be looking for a home which reveals the owner’s personality and individual style. Across five episodes, the judges will travel across the country to deliberate on three homes in each region, choosing one winner each week. These will then go head to head in the final when one will take the coveted title of Wales' Home of the Year.

Inventor
Based on the 2013 Norwegian format Årets Hjem ("Home of the Year"), via Ireland's Home of the Year, which has been running on RTÉ since 2015, and Scotland's Home of the Year, on BBC Scotland since 2019.
Trivia
Usually aired at 7:30 on BBC1 Wales, except for episode five, which was bumped to the second channel due to coverage of the death of Queen Elizabeth II, and aired at 8pm; its Sunday repeat was its first showing on BBC1, and aired at 5:05.
