A £4,500,000 London townhouse could be yours for as little as £10

Ever dreamed about winning the lottery and buying a huge London home with your winnings? The latest Omaze prize draw has dropped – and this time, a £4,500,000 Georgian townhouse is up for grabs.

Located in the very heart of the capital on London’s South Bank, the four-bedroom, five-storey property has uninterrupted views of The Shard, an iconic London landmark that, 12 years from its opening, is still visited by up to 6,000 people each day.

The cheapest entry to the Omaze prize costs just £10, which secures 15 entries. However, if you want to increase your chances, 40 entries are available for £25, 85 for £50, or a whopping 320 for £150.

It’s not just fantastic views and a central location you’ll be inheriting either, as the house itself is steeped in history. Outside the front, there’s a ghostly Take Courage sign which has faded over the years, a subtle hint to its links to the former Anchor Brewery.

One of Southwark’s most famous institutions, the brewery was founded in 1616 – and by the early 19^th century, it had become the world’s largest. It eventually closed down in 1981, but The Anchor pub is still in operation – just round the corner from the Omaze house.

Perfect for fans of period homes, the property retains many of its original features, including Georgian sash windows.

Many elements have also been given a modern spin, including the steel-framed Sunroom extension backing out onto the garden, the separate studio space outdoors, and the firepit which doubles as a barbecue. It’s now spring, after all.

On the first floor, there’s a traditional Georgian reception room to allow you to live out all your Bridgerton dreams, while the three bedrooms are found on the upper floors, offering stunning views over the London skyline.

And outside, the garden – which was designed by Chelsea Flower Show Gold winners – features wooden bench seating, a canopy, a herb garden and plenty of flowers and fauna to admire.

Naturally, the home comes mortgage-free and has all stamp duty and legal fees included.

And that’s not the only prize up for grabs, as the lucky winner will also be gifted £250,000 in cash to help with settling in, whether that’s used towards fresh interiors (though £150,000 worth of furnishings is already included), or the general running of the home.

It’s estimated that the cash prize could keep the home ticking over for almost 10 years, but if you’re not so fussed about living in it, there’s always the option of renting it out or selling up to pocket the cash.

In fact, according to local estate agents, the property could be rented out for anywhere between £8,000 and £10,000 per month.

‘Everyone at Omaze is thrilled to be partnering with The King’s Trust again for our latest house draw,’ said James Oakes, president of Omaze.

‘By offering this amazing property in London, plus £250,000 in cash, Omaze gives people the chance to win a life-changing prize, whilst also raising money for charities.

‘The eventual winner is free to decide what they want to do with the house. They can move in and not have to worry about any immediate costs, thanks to the £250,000 settling in money; they can rent it out, for additional income; or they can sell up and cash in to become a multimillionaire – the choice is entirely theirs.’

Want to shoot your shot? The Grand Prize draw closes on April 27 for online entries, and April 29 for postal entries.
