Build your dream property for free
Apply to take part in a new BBC programme and you could build your dream property, and live in it for free


A new BBC One programme is giving six lucky people the once-in-a-lifetime chance to build their dream property, with the chance it could be theirs for nothing.
The programme will follow the fortunes of six nominated contestants who have been selected for their creative ideas by a top property guru who will fund their dream property projects. At the end of the programme, the six properties will be judged by the 'guru', and the winner will be allowed to keep their dream house.
If you've had your eye on a rundown house or a plot of land and have ideas about how you could transform it into your dream property, apply to be a part of the programme by emailing dreamproperty@bbc.co.uk

Exquisite houses, the beauty of Nature, and how to get the most from your life, straight to your inbox.
Country Life is unlike any other magazine: the only glossy weekly on the newsstand and the only magazine that has been guest-edited by His Majesty The King not once, but twice. It is a celebration of modern rural life and all its diverse joys and pleasures — that was first published in Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee year. Our eclectic mixture of witty and informative content — from the most up-to-date property news and commentary and a coveted glimpse inside some of the UK's best houses and gardens, to gardening, the arts and interior design, written by experts in their field — still cannot be found in print or online, anywhere else.
