The businessman said: “Some people might think this is crazy but we think it’s a great way to help 11 amazing charities and for someone to win a millionaire’s mansion. We have loved living here, but are ready to move on to our next adventure. “Why not do something a bit different if you can? We’re in the fortunate position of being able to support some of our favourite charities, the likes of Make-A-Wish UK, Help for Heroes and the British Red Cross. At the same time we make someone’s dreams come true through the competition and we get to move closer to our grandchildren!” https://www.instagram.com/p/BeivTebluXS/   Jason Suckley, CEO of Make-A-Wish, said: “On behalf of Make-A-Wish UK, I’d like to say how thrilled we are to be part of this exciting, once in a lifetime, opportunity. It’s difficult to imagine a more spectacular prize for the lucky winner.” Vanessa Fox, CEO of Farms for City Children, added: “It is amazing to be the recipient of such a unique donation. Each year the charity needs to raise over £1m to provide the opportunity for 3,200 inner city primary school children to visit one of our three farms to enjoy a wonderful week of muck and magic where they flourish and grow in self-esteem, self- confidence and self-worth. We are so grateful to the anonymous donor and will be encouraging our supporters to buy tickets.”   ## About the house Situated in a Devon hamlet, the property features a sweeping driveway, 10
