THE LIMERICK Home of the Year contestants have fallen marginally short of the winning spot in the grand final of the popular RTÉ series.
Two Limerick families had secured a spot in this year’s final of Home of the Year, Saara McLoughlin with her family, and young couple Kate and Cian O’Driscoll.
Both families missed out on being crowned owners of Home of the Year, losing to Jen Sheahan and her late 1800s artisan cottage in Dublin.
However, before the final even began, both Limerick families expressed that they were just happy for the experience and no title was that important.
