A former opera singer is raffling off his 1 million pounds Italian mansion complete with swimming pool, church and fig groves - for 2 pounds a ticket.
一位前歌剧演唱家正在以抽奖的方式出售他价值100万英镑的意式豪宅，豪宅内设游泳池、教堂和无花果树林--抽奖门票为2英镑。
Father-of-three Mark Glanville, 58, bought the 17th century fortified manor house with his wife and they renovated it into a luxury holiday home with room for 27 guests.
58岁的马克·格兰维尔是三个孩子的父亲，他与妻子一起买下了这座建于17世纪、防御森严的庄园，并将其翻修成一个豪华的度假别墅，可容纳27位客人。
Sitting among acres of orange, lemon, olive and fig groves and surrounded by an ancient walled garden, it has a private church, mosaic pool and courtyard.
庄园坐落在数英亩的橙子树、柠檬树、橄榄树和无花果树丛中，四周环绕着古老的围墙花园，还拥有私人教堂、马赛克镶嵌画泳池与庭院。
But after a year on the market without any acceptable offers, Mr Glanville agreed to let his son Josh, 21, organize a lucky draw to give away the seven-bed home.
然而，在市场上出售一年没有遇到合适的报价后，格兰维尔先生同意让他21岁的儿子乔什组织抽奖，将这座拥有七间卧室的豪宅售出。
He is selling up to 575,000 tickets for 2 pounds each and the winner will get the keys to the home near the medieval town of Oria.
他将最多售出57.5万张票，每张售价2英磅，中奖者就能得到这座毗邻中世纪小镇奥里亚的豪宅的钥匙。
The west Londoner says: "Our family have been living the Italian mansion for over a decade and this is our way of giving as many people as possible the chance to have the amazing experience we have enjoyed."
这位西伦敦人表示：“我们的家庭已经在这栋意式豪宅中生活十多年了，这是我们让尽可能多的人有机会享受我们所享受的美妙体验的方式。”
"We didn't want to hand the property over to just any old millionaire. One of the ideas behind selling in this way is that it gives someone a chance to start a business."
“我们不想把财产交给任何一个传统的百万富翁。以这种方式销售的理念之一是，它会给一些人提供一次创业的机会。”
