The first in our Luxury Lineup series, Draw 379 offers you the chance to win the ultimate $4.8 million beach house in your choice of either QLD or NSW. It’s a Battle of the States, and a battle of the stylists! Situated in Freshwater, our NSW home captures the best of living on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. With floor-to-ceiling windows, this sun-soaked home gives you picturesque water views and the convenience of local shops and restaurants only minutes away. If your heart belongs to QLD, you will love our Palm Beach home located on the popular Gold Coast. With the beach as your backyard, this home offers relaxed beachfront living and is only minutes away from Surfer’s Paradise, nature reserves and the Gold Coast hinterland. Would you choose the contemporary oceanfront home in Freshwater on Sydney’s Northern Beaches styled by Neale Whitaker, or the unique slice of beachfront paradise in Palm Beach on the Gold Coast styled by Anna Spiro? If you’re the lucky winner, the choice will be all yours! RSL Art Union – there really is nothing like it. Thank you once again for your ongoing support and best of luck in this draw. Yours sincerely,
