House of the Year 2024 Top 100 Announced

12 August 2024

The Top 100 Homes for the 2024 Registered Master Builders House of the Year Competition have been announced. 

The competition celebrates the very best in residential buildings, showcasing exceptional workmanship on remarkable builds from across New Zealand.  

This year, the regional competition saw close to 300 entries across seven regions. Each home was assessed by a panel of experienced judges who evaluated the builds based on workmanship, design, style, and functionality. 
Registered Master Builders Chief Executive, Ankit Sharma, says the awards have been recognising the finest homes, quality builders, and craftspeo
ple across New Zealand for over three decades.  

“Year after year, we are continually impressed by the outstanding builds, level of expertise, and craftsmanship demonstrated by Master Builders throughout Aotearoa. These awards are an opportunity to celebrate and acknowledge our builders' ability to deliver exceptional homes for Kiwis,” says Ankit Sharma.  
“It's amazing to see how our Master Builder members consistently push boundaries, showcasing innovative approaches from product use to intricate architectural detailing. This year's Top 100 exemplifies the industry's commitment to excellence and ability to innovate,” he continues.  

The Top 100 homes, representing the best entrants from this year's regional competitions held throughout July and August, will now undergo a second round of judging by the national judging panel. This process will determine the winners of the national awards, which will be announced at the 2024 National Awards Gala, on 23 November in Auckland. 

The National Awards Gala will honour the Supreme House of the Year over $1 million, Supreme Renovation of the Year, and Supreme House of the Year under $1 million. In addition to three Supreme Awards and 16 other award categories, the event will also present the Pink Batts Craftsmanship Award, two Feature Home Awards, and five Lifestyle Awards, including the APL Environmental and Sustainable Excellence Award, Plumbing World Bathroom Excellence Award, Kitchen Excellence Award, and Outdoor Living Excellence Award. 

The Awards are made possible thanks to the support of Altus Window Systems, Builders Academy, Bunnings Trade, CARTERS, GIB, Master Build 10-Year Guarantee, Mitre 10 Trade, Pink Batts, Plumbing World, Resene, and APL Window Solutions.
