Brian and Wendy Wilshaw are hoping to give away their property (valued at £1 million - currently over $2 million) by selling 46,000 tickets at £25 ($50 equivalent) each. After trying to sell it for months the normal way, the couple decided to give this method a try instead. Situated in Devon (UK), the five-bedroom property (called "Oldborough Retreat") is ideal for fishing enthusiasts and comes with 4 two-bedroom wooden lodges, 11.5 acres of woodland paddock and 2-acre lake. Suffice it to say it is an excellent prize for anyone who enjoys the countryside, fishing in Devon and generally relaxing in the country!
