A lucky dad from Bolton is selling his stunning £2.35m mansion after winning it in an Omaze draw, aiming to secure a bright future for his family.
Bolton: Just a few months ago, a lucky dad hit the jackpot. He won a gorgeous mansion in Exmouth through an Omaze draw. Now, he’s putting it up for sale at £2.35 million.
Tom Steenson, 63, entered the draw with just £20. He ended up with a stunning four-bedroom home that has a swimming pool and amazing sea views. Talk about a dream come true!
When he won, Tom didn’t just get the house. He also received £250,000 in cash to help him settle in. That’s a nice bonus, right?
Tom lives in Maidstone with his wife, Carole. They’ve been married for 35 years. Even after winning, he plans to keep working because he likes staying busy.
He’s excited about family gatherings at the new place, especially a pool party his grandkids are planning. They might even have a Christmas getaway with family from Australia.
Tom mentioned they’ll enjoy the house for a while but will likely sell it next year. The money from the sale could change their lives. With the cash they’ve already got, they could live there for a decade if they wanted.
He’s thinking about how selling the house could help their kids and grandkids. It’s all about creating a legacy for the family. How cool is that?
Local estate agents say if they rented it out, they could make between £6,000 and £7,000 a month. That’s some serious cash flow!
Besides making Tom a millionaire, the Omaze draw raised £3.5 million for a suicide prevention charity. That’s a win-win!
Tom and Carole have lived in their two-bedroom home since 2021, sharing it with their kids and a Cocker Spaniel named Dazzle. They’re ready to sell and use the cash to benefit their family.
The mansion, called The Hideout, is listed with Knight Frank for £2.35 million. It boasts up to five bedrooms, three bathrooms, a gym, and even a cinema room.
The garden has a swimming pool and a lovely terrace. The house is described as a modern masterpiece with over 4,200 square feet of luxury living space.
It’s located in beautiful Exmouth, blending luxury and functionality perfectly. Plus, all the furniture is included in the sale. What a deal!
