NEW YORK, Aug. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- HGTV today
announced the winner of the HGTV® Smart Home 2021 is
Becky Dolan of Seattle, WA. The prize package is valued at
over $1.1 million and includes the
brand-new approximately 2,600-square-foot home, consisting of three
bedrooms, three bathrooms, a two-car garage, and all of its
furnishings. The prize package also grants the winner with
$100,000 from LendingTree and a 2021
Mercedes-Benz E-Class Cabriolet. The home was constructed by local
builder Mayor Construction with interior design by Tiffany Brooks.
Dolan was randomly drawn from over 106 million entries to the
sweepstakes, which lasted from April 21,
2021 to June 11, 2021 and
garnered the highest number of entries in HGTV Smart Home history.
The mom of two entered the sweepstakes every day, as she has done
in the past with other HGTV Home Giveaways, including HGTV Dream
Home and HGTV Urban Oasis. Dolan explained that she felt as if
Brooks had designed the house specifically for her, noting her love
of the kitchen, as well as the pops of color and beachy feel
throughout the home, remarking that "It's such an oasis! Just
looking at photos of the house makes me feel calm." For the Dolans,
this is truly a family affair, and they are blown away by the
incredible technology implemented in the home.
"You never think you're going to be that person," Dolan said
about being the winner of the HGTV Smart Home 2021. "But someone
gets to be, and I'm ecstatic it gets to be me and my family."
Originally a teacher, Dolan currently works as a development and
community professional at a local school which serves children aged
3-11. During the lockdowns caused by COVID-19, Dolan and her school
found unique ways to build connections as a community and to
facilitate the faculty's important work of engaging students,
utilizing all the indoor and outdoor areas on the school's campus.
Dolan is a Seattle native,
residing there with her husband, Jerry, their two children, Kate
and Joey, their dog, Sam, and their cat, Sarge.
The HGTV Smart Home 2021 home is located in Naples, FL, right on the Gulf of Mexico, with miles of white sand
coastline. This luxury coastal getaway is located on a private
cul-de-sac adjacent to a beautiful golf course and about 25 minutes
from the pristine beaches of Marco
Island. The home boasts bold prints and natural, earthy
tones with tons of greenery as an ode to Florida's indoor to outdoor lifestyle. The
full-service smart kitchen comes with a breakfast area as well as a
hydroponic garden in the pantry and the backyard provides a
gorgeous lanai ideal for entertaining. The three bedrooms each have
their own unique design and feel as well as their own en suite
bathrooms, including a bunk room for kids, a guest bedroom and an
expansive owner's suite.
