A stunning five-bedroom mansion in Cornwall is up for grabs in the latest Omaze prize draw. 

The £3million home is just a few minutes away from picturesque St Agnes beach and is nestled within the Cornish countryside. 

The house sits in an elevated position giving the lucky winner front row seats to a breathtaking view of the idyllic village and Cornwall's famous Engine House.

It is the latest offering from Omaze, whose properties have been subject to something of a 'curse', with the vast majority of prizes sold less than 12 months after being won.

Of the 15 properties handed over to date, just three are still lived in by the winners while another is rented out as an AirBnB.

Entries to the latest draw cost just £10 and comes with £100,000 in cash with the latest giveaway raising funds for the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF).

It comes mortgage free, with all stamp duty and legal fees covered. 

The winner can decide to either live in the house, rent it out for a supplementary income or sell it to become a cash multi-millionaire.

If the winner decides to rent it out, local estate agents estimate that the property could achieve a long-term rental value of £3,000 to £4,000 per month.

A private driveway leads to a landscaped courtyard with ample parking - all framed by trees and nature-filled gardens.

The house itself is an outstanding example of modern architecture and has been finished to an exceptional standard. 

The design celebrates the encompassing environment with plenty of glazing - allowing natural light and picturesque scenery to fill the home.

The spacious entrance hall with a natural stone floor and vaulted ceiling leads through to the open plan kitchen, dining and family area - with herringbone oak floors throughout - which forms the heart of the home.

The kitchen has a vaulted ceiling and features bespoke hand-built units with a long breakfast island seating area, a range of units with Corian worktops, built-in fridge/ freezer, three ovens and all the usual appliances you'd expect to find in a high-end property.
