£10.50 could let you live like a millionaire

A MILLIONAIRE is holding a competition to give away his £2.3million mansion for £10.50 a ticket – complete with a Rolls-royce, a stocked wine cellar, a gardener and a housekeeper.

The four-bedroom hideaway is surrounded by a 10-acre landscaped garden, three-hole golf green, leisure complex with a pool and gym and a granny flat. The seller wants to walk away with just a handful of personal possessions – so the winner will also receive all the furniture, hundreds of bottles of wine and all the white goods.

Whoever buys the home near Tiverton, Devon, will also get £50,000 cash, a tractor and a quad bike – and bizarrely the stock of 600 spare light bulbs.

The anonymous home owner said he just wanted to sell it via the competition to “have some fun”. Along with his wife, the businessman built the property in the early 1990s and will donate £2 from every ticket sold to charities including the British Red Cross, the Make A Wish Foundation and Help For Heroes.

He said: “We don’t want the hassle of moving everything out. We just want to walk out with our clothes, personal possessions and family photos.”

The owners are hoping to sell 500,000 tickets by the close of competition next November – netting an estimated £5.25million in sales.
