Omaze Great Escape House Draw, Wales, Running Costs

Soon it could be you escaping the everyday. Lounging on the decked veranda of this £500,000 Contemporary House, in the breathtaking borders of Wales, among four acres of meadows at the foot of the Radnor Hills. Or returning from a bracing country stroll to recline on this cosy corner sofa by a roaring log burner, hot chocolate in hand.

We want the winner of the very first, all-new Omaze Great Escape House Draw to be able to turn up, sit back and simply switch off in style. So, as with all of our houses:

  • We’ve designed and dressed the house with beautiful furniture worth £60,000, so it’s all ready to move into.
  • As always, we’ve taken care of the mortgage, stamp duty and legal fees, so there’s nothing left to pay.
  • We’ll give the winner £50,000 in cash to help with running costs and settling in.

The Wales Great Escape House has been designed with efficiency in mind, with exemplary insulation, an air source heat pump and zoned underfloor heating. We’ve estimated the running costs of the Wales Great Escape House (as of October 2024) to be £403 per month based on:

  • Electricity: £40 per month
  • Heat Pump and Water Cylinder service: £21 per month
  • Septic Tank emptying and service: £42 per month
  • Council Tax: £166 per month
  • Broadband: £65 per month
  • Chimney Sweep: £23 per month
  • Bore Hole Service: £33 per month
  • Wood for log burner: £13 per month

There are also additional services that the winner may wish to engage such as a TV licence, cleaner, window cleaner and gardener, to make the most of those acres of beautiful land, which we would expect to come to around £700 per month.
