Lucky winner Richard Baker, 58, secured the keys to a stunning new property in the New Forest for just £25 in the latest draw.

And he said the family will now know how it feels to live like “other local celebrities” Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, who have moved his club up to the Championship.

To mark the win, Richard whisked his 17-year-old daughter straight to a Wrexham football match that evening.

Hie said: "We're normal people with normal jobs, but now we're going to be living like Hollywood superstars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. We got a draw at the football, but we'd already won big that day, so I was still more than happy.”

The impressive four-bedroom property sits on more than an acre of private grounds, just minutes from the coastline and the Georgian market town of Lymington.

The lavish home boasts its own swimming pool, yoga studio and sauna pod - and is encircled by magnificently landscaped gardens, including a vegetable patch.

Richard, who lives with wife Yannick, 54, and daughter Alicia, 17, has also received a life-altering £500,000 in cash through the Omaze Million Pound House Draw, as well as the new house in the New Forest arriving mortgage-free, with all stamp duty and legal fees paid.
