This stunning three-bedroom house and VW Polo worth £255,000 could be yours for just £2. 

Raffal is a site that allows people to raffle tickets for huge prizes for just £2. It means many people get to live their dream and move abroad, while someone else gets a whopping great big prize for as little as £2.

This Salford house has three double bedrooms, a large kitchen-diner, large lounge and a stunning bathroom.

There’s also a huge rear garden with decked entertaining areas, and a large front driveway with a small garden and enough space for two cars.

The house is also decked out with wireless Amazon Ring CCTV with free storage and a Yale home alarm system, so you will definitely feel safe! 

For the winter months there’s also Hive Heating control, and for all those technology-obsessed people there’s plenty of USB sockets around the house.

Ideal for families, the house is located in the M7 bracket of Salford, close to amenities and perfect for commuting to Manchester City Centre.

The Reid family recently renovated the house ready to sell so they could fulfill their dreams of moving to Australia.

The family have been planning to move to Australia for three years, but two years ago Anthony sadly lost his mum to lung cancer meaning their move was put on hold.

This year, the family finally got the house ready to sell in March – hitting the market a week before lockdown started.

They struggled with no viewings before deciding to chance it all on Raffall.

All of the tickets must sell for someone to win the house. If the end date is reached before all tickets are sold, the winner receives 75% of the money raised and the Reid family are just left with their house. 

Buy tickets here and follow the family’s Instagram to keep up to date. Good luck!
