For the second year in a row, readers selected a home from Hawaii in the annual WSJ.com poll

For the second consecutive year, a home from Hawaii scored the top spot in WSJ.com’s House of the Year poll. Each year, our readers choose from among the 52 House of the Week winners to determine which home is the best of the best.
In 2019, 133,631 votes were cast in the poll. This year’s winner—a sleek, oceanfront estate on the island of Oahu—wasn’t the only Hawaiian property to make a splash in our annual competition. Five homes from the Aloha State landed in the top 15, including a stately villa atop a mountain in Maui and a Lanai home that was built with materials from around the world.
Readers returned to the mainland for our second- and third-place winners. A South Carolina island home with views of the Atlantic Ocean and a cantilevered Colorado property set among woods and native grasses were separated by just 32 votes.
