Worth £6,000,000, this Norfolk Coastal House in Blakeney is Omaze's biggest prize draw ever. Located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the East Anglian coast of England, with sweeping views across the north Norfolk coast, the three-bedroom house is a classic American farmhouse style, with a lovely wraparound porch. As if that's not enough, it also comes with an all-weather tennis court and heated pool.
You'll find the house on the western edge of Blakeney, a lovely village with an award-winning Blue Flag beach. Norfolk itself is a county known for its rich agricultural history, dramatic beaches, and quaint market towns and villages.
The house itself is a lateral coastal house clad in a pastel blue and fit with a colonnade balcony. The wrap-around porch is perfect for entertaining and enjoying the views over the North Sea. All around the house are lush lawns and wildflower meadows that lead to a nature reserve.
Inside, the design has a calming, coastal feel, evocative of the white-washed homes in the Hamptons. The kitchen features a large island, quartz worktops and a Rangemaster Cooker, making it the perfect place to cook and host. The lounge is relaxed and comfortable, with a blue and white colour scheme (remember: all the furniture comes with the house so it's turnkey-ready), with French doors that open up onto the garden. The dining room is dual aspect and set around a large wooden table; you'd be hard-pressed to find a dinner party with better views of the English coast.
The largest of the three bedrooms is set within the vaulted ceilings of the first floor of the house, with doors opening onto a balcony with views over the sea. The adjoining bathroom features a large chrome rainfall shower and a pretty double vanity. The other two large bedrooms are decorated in a light and airy neutral style.
The outdoor amenities are perhaps the highlight of the house. A lovely outdoor living room with big cushioned sofas leads directly onto the salt marshes and the sea. If the chill of the North Sea isn't calling to you, then the heated pool bordered by wildflower gardens surely will. The tennis courts are just beyond the garden, set within the sand dunes of Blakeney Point. The summer house is a lovely perk too: a little white-washed oasis with a pitched roof. This could easily be used as an office or guest room.
As usual, there’s no stamp duty, mortgage or conveyancing fees to pay and the prize includes £250,000 in cash. You're free to move in, rent the place out or even sell up and enjoy the profits. By entering the Norfolk House Draw you’ll be helping Comic Relief, as Omaze have pledged to donate at least £1 million of their profits to support young people who are at risk of, or experiencing, homelessness, through their Every Step of the Way programme.
