Owner Peter Pearce has been delighted by the response to his competition, raising money for Chestnut Tree House children’s hospice, near Arundel, and St Barnabas House hospice in Worthing.

He has already given an advance donation of £10,000 and would dearly love to reach his target of at least £150,000 for the charities, so has extended the deadline until November.

Peter said: “I’ve been overwhelmed with the response to the prize draw since July and I’m grateful to the general public for buying tickets and referring friends and family members.

“However, while we’ve had great success so far, we haven’t yet sold enough tickets to award the house and I’ve therefore decided to extend the deadline.

“I know that people want the house to be awarded and that’s always been my aim, too, so I feel it’s only right to give people that opportunity.

“I won’t extend the closing date again, so please buy tickets so that we can raise £150,000 for charity and make someone the new owner of Painter’s Keep. Good luck to everyone!”

The Painter’s Keep draw was due to take place on Thursday, September 10, over a live stream on Facebook and Instagram but the deadline is now midnight on November 1, 2020.

Tickets are £2, with no limit on quantity purchased, and people have been able to increase their chance of winning by earning additional free tickets for a £10,000 referral prize through sharing the link sent in their ‘thank you for entering email’.

Peter said: “I decided to launch the once-in-a-lifetime prize draw after seeing a crisis appeal from the hospices earlier this year.

“As we have all experienced, in one form or another, the Covid-19 pandemic has had a hugely detrimental impact, not least to the fundraising on which charities rely heavily, and this was my way of helping to plug that shortfall.”

Painter’s Keep is a distinctive property in Seaview Avenue, Kingston Gorse. It stands out along the treeline with its commanding views to the north across open fields and on towards the South Downs.
