A Glasgow man who won a luxury £2.5million home in an online raffle is putting the property up for sale - with ten per cent added onto the price tag. Widower Grant Carson entered the prize draw earlier this year and scooped the five-bedroom country mansion in the Lake District, Cumbria.
The 58-year-old has worked in the charity sector for 27 years and said winning the Omaze Million Pound draw in January, which also came with £100,000 cash, offered him more 'security'. But now appears to have had a change of heart, with the swanky property on the market for £2.75million.
Estate agents Hackney & Leigh describe it as "a superb country home set in eight acres of meadow, pasture land and gardens, and its elevated location gives the most delightful southerly and westerly views over the surrounding area".
