Only a Week Left to Enter for a Chance to Win the DIY Network Ultimate Retreat Giveaway 2018

KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Fans have just one week left to enter for a chance to win the DIY Network® Ultimate Retreat™ Giveaway 2018 in the charming mountain setting of Sapphire, North Carolina. Until 5 p.m. ET on Wednesday, September 26, viewers can enter twice per day at DIYNetwork.com/UltimateRetreat for a chance to win the grand prize package valued at over $800,000, which includes the fully furnished and renovated residence plus $50,000 provided by national mortgage lender Quicken Loans®.

"DIY Network Ultimate Retreat was launched last year to showcase the best getaway spots our country has to offer, and we should all be so lucky to have a place as special as Sapphire on our vacation lists," said Ron Feinbaum, DIY Network's General Manager of Home Promotions. "The surrounding mountains exemplify Appalachian beauty, and we think Sapphire's casual lifestyle and focus on outdoor living will strike a chord with our fans."

DIY Network Ultimate Retreat 2018 started as a modest creekside residence with a decidedly 1980s design aesthetic. Under direction from interior designer Elizabeth Demos and project manager Dylan Eastman, a top-to-bottom renovation has transformed this three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom home into an idyllic retreat for the family. Planning was done by local architecture firm Wilson Architects, Inc., and construction was handled by local builder Iezzi Custom Homes.

The approximately 2,500-square-foot home has a textural and sophisticated exterior style that gives way to an interior defined by a modern mountain aesthetic. Inside, there is abundant local flavor with the use of reclaimed materials and tonal hues inspired by Sapphire's tranquil landscape. The expansive living room anchors the main living space in the house, featuring tall ceilings, a stunning two-way fireplace that is visible from the deck outside, and an open floorplan that flows seamlessly into the kitchen and dining room. The master suite adds a touch of luxury to the down-to-earth vibe, and a rustic bunk room amps up the mountain charm. Out back, multi-leveled decks and a serene water view provide ample incentive to soak up the beauty of the outdoors.

DIY Network Ultimate Retreat 2018 features products provided by national advertising sponsors including The Sherwin Williams Company; Lumber Liquidators; Quicken Loans®; Mitsubishi Electric Cooling & Heating; Cabinets To Go; James Hardie Building Products; La-Z-Boy Incorporated; and Kohler.
