A competition has been launched for people to win a £4 million Lake District house.
Omaze’s latest draw for the property with views across Coniston Water – and £250,000 cash – will also raise funds for Age UK.
The four-bedroom property comes mortgage-free, with all stamp duty and legal fees covered.
Omaze estimates that if the winner decides to keep the luxurious property, the £250,000 would enable them to run the house for over six years.
If they decide to rent it out, local estate agents estimate that the property could achieve a long-term rental value of £4,000 per month.
The plot provides 200 metres of lake frontage, a private wood-panelled jetty and six acres of natural woodland interspersed with streams.
The elevated property also has a spa house featuring a rainfall shower, Himalayan salt wall, therapy table, gym and wooden in-ground hot tub on the terrace. There is also a standalone summerhouse.
The Omaze partnership is backed by radio presenter and Age UK ambassador, Ken Bruce.
Ken said: “I’m thrilled to be supporting this incredible partnership between Omaze and Age UK. It’s not every day you get to be a part of something that has the power to change lives, both for the lucky winner of this stunning home and for the older people Age UK supports every day.
“Age UK has been close to my heart for years. I’ve seen first-hand how they bring vital friendship and support to older people who feel alone and forgotten. To be part of this campaign, especially at a time when isolation is so widespread, is a privilege.
“With Christmas around the corner, it’s heartbreaking to think of the 1.4 million older people who last year said it was the hardest time of yearⁱⁱ. Age UK offers a lifeline of friendship and community all year round, and I’m honoured to help raise awareness for their mission through this Omaze partnership. The funds raised will ensure that more older people get the support and connection they deserve.”
Omaze has guaranteed Age UK a minimum donation of £1 million from the partnership.
James Oakes, Chief International Officer at Omaze, said: “Everyone at Omaze is honoured to be partnering with Age UK for our latest house draw.
