Last month, HGTV announced that Jeff Yanes of Kyle, Texas was the winner of the 2021 Dream Home Sweepstakes. Valued at over $2.8 million, the fully-furnished and brand new home located in Portsmouth, Rhode Island, $250,000 cash, and a motorhome from Camping World were awarded to Yanes, per a news release from the network.

The four-bedroom waterfront home was built by JPS Construction and designed by Brian Patrick Flynn (he discusses the home's design in the video above!), who has been at the helm of HGTV's Dream Home projects since 2016. Just right outside of Newport, RI, the three-story home epitomizes New England's coastal charm. But despite its beauty and Yane's diligent efforts (for the past six years he entered the HGTV Home Giveaways giveaway twice daily), he is parting ways with his highly-coveted grand prize. The home is currently on the market for $2.39 million.

Some highlights of the 3,300 square foot home include: a rooftop deck with a built-in wet bar, a custom outdoor kitchen, a backyard putting green, a basement game room and lounge area, a walk-in closet and en suite bathroom in the main bedroom, and more. Just as when Yanes won the home, all furniture, art, and appliances are included in the sale. Brands that helped furnish the house include: Wayfair, Belgard, Cabinets To Go, Delta Faucet, Trex, Sherwin-Williams, LL Flooring, SimpliSafe Home Security, Sleep Number, and VELUX USA.

Last but not least, you'll get to live in a Brian Patrick Flynn original! With this year's home, he opted for a modern nautical style rich in deep reds and blues. "Every detail about the home, from the construction to the design elements, capture the spirit of Newport," he said in a press release last December, when the home was unveiled.
