The last couple of weeks has seen a flurry of votes, and now you, the readers have spoken: these are your top 5 finalists for our 2024 Western Living Home of the Year!

The finalists include a remote, Nordic-inspired cabin from designer Sophie Burke, who also has a second finalist on this list—this one paired with architect Laura Killam, for an off-the-grid guest home that embraces indoor-outdoor living. Designer Kelly Deck brought a sense of play to a West Vancouver home (including a secret staircase that emerges from behind a bookshelf) and designer Andrea McLean and architect Howard Airey brought Aussie beach house dreams to a couple at Kits beach. And finally, readers were inspired by the season: Kimberly Jones’s design for a Victoria home is full of Christmas spirit.

So get your voting-button fingers primed! You’ve got until Wednesday, December 18, at 11:59 pm to vote for the one home that will take home the top prize. Take a look at the homes below, and then scroll to the bottom to vote.

We’ll announce the winner on Thursday, December 19. Vote, vote, vote!
