$2.2 Million Encinitas House Up for Raffle

Raffle proceeds will benefit local families with critically ill or injured children.

A $150 raffle ticket could be the key to a $2.2 million dollar Encinitas home for one lucky winner of this year’s Dream House Raffle, which benefits the Ronald McDonald House Charities of San Diego.

The 4,600-square-foot home sits on a 2.5-acre lot and features five bedrooms, five bathrooms, a gourmet kitchen, an entertainment room with pool table, a guest suite, and an outdoor pool and spa.

Raffle tickets cost $150 each and help raise money for the Ronald McDonald House of San Diego, which provides a comforting home and supportive services – including food and lodging – to families with critically ill or injured children being treated at local hospitals.
