On Wednesday the Sun exclusively revealed that the Beckhams quit the US to move back full time to their home in the Cotswolds.
The lucky winner will be able to count David and Victoria Beckham as neighbours with the famous family living just a few short miles away.
Decorated in light and bright neutral tones, the kitchen is open-plan with a separate dining area for entertaining guests.
The lounge offers plenty of room for relaxing by the wood burner – perfect for those countryside evenings.
Upstairs, it’s equally as spacious with tastefully decorated double bedrooms, a study and sprawling, modern bathrooms.
The spawling family home also offers a two-bedroom detached cottage on its grounds, as well as a double-carport for budding collectors like neighbour, Jeremy Clarkson.
The property is located just outside Chipping Norton in the heart of the Cotswolds countryside, with Oxford 30 minutes away and London just over an hour’s drive.

The draw is being run by online fundraising platform Omaze in partnership with The Prince’s Trust charity, with a minimum donation of £100,000 guaranteed.
Just to sweeten the deal, the winner will have no mortgage, no stamp duty and no conveyancing to pay on the property – and Omaze is throwing in £10,000 cash for good measure.
Worried about tending to the 2.3 acres of private land that come with the home?
Don’t panic – you’ll also get access to your own gardener for the first two years.
Entering could set you back as little as 47p per entry, with prices starting at £10 for 15 entries.
It’s all for a good cause, with the funds raised going to The Prince’s Trust, supporting vulnerable young people to secure advice and employment opportunities.
Dame Joan Collins, Ambassador for the Prince’s Trust said: “In my role as an Ambassador for The Trust, I’ve seen first-hand how much the support from the Prince’s Trust means to the young people they help and the difference it makes to their lives.”
