A Spot of Luxury

A Spot of LuxuryWin a beautiful 8 bedroom family home in the leafy suburbs of Derby (UK), valued at £800,000 in January 2009.

Organised by local entrepreneurs Paul Roome and Peter Biddle, this house competition requires players to buy a £25 ticket and answer a maths question.

"The prize house is 9.198m high. How many UK £1 coins, stacked flat on top of each other, would it take to reach the height of 9.198m? A UK £1 Pound coin is 0.315cm thick."

Nestled in the leafy suburbs of Derby, England, with the picturesque Derbyshire Dales and Peak District National Park with easy reach - yet close to all the amenities of the city centre, this premium eight-bedroom home offers the ultimate executive lifestyle:

  • Four large reception rooms with a choice of light fittings for the lounge and dining room.
  • Gloriously light and airy Victorian style conservatory.
  • Large family kitchen and breakfast room fitted with your choice of top quality units and appliances worth £25,000.
  • Adjoining fully plumbed utility room.
  • Sectacular solid oak staircase leading to the first floor gallery landing.
  • Opulent master bedroom with en-suite bathroom with Jacizzi bath.
  • Five more spacious bedrooms – three with en-suite shower rooms.
  • Large family bathroom with Jacuzzi bath.
  • Library room or study.
  • A further staircase leads you to the second floor which is ideal for two large bedrooms, a home office, gym or even a cinema and entertainments suite.

The property has been sympathetically built with traditional-style UPVC and double-glazed sash windows, a hand-built front door, infrastructure for an integral sound system throughout the house. It is fully alarmed with electronic gates and garage door. Outside, the garden has been professionally landscaped and includes a large patio with rockery and waterfall feature.

“A Spot of Luxury is all about bringing fun and excitement to people’s lives, giving everyone the opportunity to win luxury holidays in far away places and super-cars that most of us can only dream about owning, as well as the chance to win truly life-changing prizes like the eight bedroom house we currently have on offer which is worth an incredible £800,000.” said Peter Biddle.

This is a truly sumptuous home, ideal for those who want the space to enjoy the best of every world.
