Matea Marzic won the top prize of the evening, and is now the owner of the coveted €350,000 two-bedroom apartment in Adare.
“I still can’t believe it,” Matea gushed. “The feeling hasn’t settled down yet. I’m feeling a little bit in disbelief, to be honest.”
Amazingly, the 31-year-old and her husband Dino were in the crowd at the Woodlands Hotel for the draw on Sunday, August 18.
Matea explained that, “At first, I didn’t want to go, but my husband said that he was gonna go. He was saying that for weeks, ‘I’m gonna go. Everybody’s invited. It’s my day off.’”. In the end, she decided to join him.
They each bought a ticket after Dino saw an ad on Facebook for the raffle and they decided, “You know what? Why not?… It’s probably gonna be nothing, but like, at least we tried”.
Matea and Dino got to see their new apartment after the raffle draw, though it will probably be a while before they can move in: “They did a really, really good job and it looks stunning. Everything is brand new inside, it’s beautiful.”
