One lucky person could soon be living the ultimate country dream- thanks to Benedict Cumberbatch.
The acclaimed actor is backing the Omaze Million Pound House Draw, giving entrants the chance to win a £4,000,000 Cotswolds period home plus £250,000 in cash, all while supporting The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity.
The winner of the Omaze Million Pound House Draw, Cotswolds, will get the keys to a beautifully refurbished country house comprising a four-bedroom main house and a separate two-bedroom cottage, set within an acre of landscaped gardens, complete with rolling countryside views in the heart of the Cotswolds.
Located near Cirencester, the characterful property is a harmonious blend of original period features, flawlessly combined with modern luxuries, celebrating its heritage while embracing contemporary living.
The house comes mortgage-free, with all stamp duty and legal fees covered, plus £175,000 worth of furnishings. The eventual winner will also receive £250,000 in cash to help them settle in, and can choose to either live in the house, rent it out for supplementary income, or sell up to become a cash multi-millionaire.
If the winner decides to keep the stunning property, the £250,000 would enable them to run the house for many years.
If they choose to rent it out, local estate agents estimate that the property could achieve a long-term rental value of around £12,500 – £15,000 per month.
Originally built in the early 1900s and thoughtfully refurbished and extended in recent years, the house retains its period charm while offering light-filled, well-proportioned rooms designed for modern living.
The ground floor of the main house offers a generous living space that includes a welcoming reception hall, spacious living room, study, library and garden room and a large bespoke kitchen and dining room.
Upstairs, the main house features a main bedroom with en suite bathroom, two further en suite bedrooms, and a flexible dressing room or additional bedroom, also with its own en suite.
The separate guest cottage provides comfortable accommodation for friends and family with its own sitting room, kitchen and breakfast room, two bedrooms, a family bathroom and its own private garden.
Outside, the fully landscaped one-acre plot includes mature shrubs, specimen trees, herbaceous borders and a large driveway, offering privacy and space in a classic picture-perfect Cotswolds setting, with a handmade oak car port and electric charging points adjacent to the house.
Located just 6 miles from Cirencester, the property is perfectly placed for village life, country pursuits and travel connections, with Kemble station just five miles away providing direct trains to London Paddington.
As well as making the lucky winner a multi-millionaire, the Omaze Million Pound House Draw, Cotswolds, will raise money to support The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity.
The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity helps The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust deliver world-leading research that benefits cancer patients worldwide. The partnership is backed by The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity Ambassador Benedict Cumberbatch.
Benedict said: “The Royal Marsden is very close to my heart, and I’ve seen first-hand the impact of their incredible work.
“The hospital improves the lives of cancer patients globally and this would not be possible without the generosity of The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity’s supporters.
“Every person who enters the Omaze Million Pound House Draw, Cotswolds can join me in supporting The Royal Marsden’s plans to transform its Chelsea site, creating space to treat more patients and conduct further pioneering research which will save even more lives for generations to come and give hope to families affected by cancer, everywhere.”
