Almost as soon as man realized he could build luxury homes on secluded swathes of land surrounded by large bodies of water, one of the universe's greatest quandaries was born.

Which is better: islands or peninsulas?

This week's Listing of the Week vote attempts to answer this age-old puzzle.

Your contenders include a stunning architectural achievement on a private island in Montana, a Sardinian peninsula villa with ample garden space, an Ontario island home with an absurd amount of spa amenities, and, for the aquaphobic, a Hudson Valley home that is both historic and landlocked.

Help settle this debate once and for all below.
