Endeavour Draw 468 - $3.7 Million in Maleny

The first prize is valued at $3,716,491.10 and centres on a fully furnished home at Balmoral Ridge, near Maleny. The package includes the house and land, interior furnishings, electrical goods, security system, solar and battery setup, ride-on mower and garden package, legal and transfer costs, and $10,000 in gold bullion.

The home is located at 6 Grandview Road, Balmoral Ridge, Queensland 4552, in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland near Maleny. The area is just under 90 minutes from Brisbane and around 30 minutes from Caloundra, offering a genuine tree-change lifestyle without being too far from the coast

The home has been designed around relaxed hinterland living and entertaining. Standout features include a swimming pool, wood-fired hot tub, enormous designer kitchen with butler’s pantry, alfresco area, wood-fired pizza oven, kitchen garden arbour and two 22,700-litre rainwater tanks.

No. The Draw 468 terms state that prizes cannot be exchanged or redeemed for cash. The winner receives the Balmoral Ridge home package and its listed inclusions rather than a cash alternative.

Yes. The home is awarded fully furnished and professionally styled. The official prize breakdown includes $189,933.77 in interior design and furnishings and $12,785.39 in electrical goods, so the winner would not be walking into an empty house

The official Draw 468 page promotes a solar and battery package featuring a 24kW solar system, 50kWh battery storage, two 10kW inverters and a three-phase electric-vehicle charger. It has been designed to help reduce the home’s ongoing electricity costs.

Yes. The official Draw 468 page lists the home as open daily from 10:00am to 4:00pm, with no appointment required. Visitors can walk through the kitchen, courtyard, pool area and the wider 4,000m² property at 6 Grandview Road, Balmoral Ridge

Potentially, but approval is not automatic. The terms state that using the property for short-term accommodation—and making changes to the home—would be subject to the relevant council approvals

Yes. The prize includes the free transfer of title, with legal and transfer costs valued at $6,700 included in the overall package.

The terms provide for 12 months of rates and charges issued by Sunshine Coast Council. Other ownership expenses that are not specifically listed as included remain the winner’s responsibility.

The winner becomes responsible for the home’s insurance, electricity, water, internet, telecommunications, gas, maintenance and general ownership expenses from the handover of the keys—or 28 days after the draw date, whichever occurs first

Because this is a new dwelling, the winner must notify Endeavour Foundation of any accepted defects within 28 days of handover. General wear and tear or damage occurring after handover is not covered.

The terms state that the number of tickets may range from 700,000 individual tickets to as many as 1,440,000 tickets when bundle purchases and associated ticket allocations are included.

There is no single fixed odds figure because the final number of eligible tickets depends on how many individual and bundled tickets are issued. Every correctly completed and accepted ticket is included in the random draw, so purchasing more tickets provides more entries but does not guarantee a result.

Endeavour Draw 468 closes at 10:00pm AEST on Thursday, 13 August 2026. Orders received after the closing time—or after the draw sells out—are automatically allocated to Endeavour Lottery 469 instead.

The Draw 468 first-prize winner will be selected from 11:00am AEST on Thursday, 20 August 2026 at Endeavour Foundation in Cannon Hill, Queensland. 

All eligible tickets are entered into a random barrel draw. The winner will be contacted by email, phone or registered post within seven days, and the winner’s initials and geographical location will be published on the Endeavour Lotteries website

Entry is open to eligible individuals aged 18 years or older. Companies and trusts cannot enter, and certain Endeavour Foundation directors, staff, auditors, people involved in conducting the draw and their immediate families are excluded

Eligible foreign persons may enter, but a foreign winner may need government approval before the Australian property can be transferred to them. Any application costs, taxes or levies associated with that approval would be the winner’s responsibility.

Funds raised through Endeavour Lotteries help Endeavour Foundation create opportunities for people with intellectual disability across Australia. Draw 468 also marks the Foundation’s 75th anniversary and celebrates decades of supporting people to grow, connect and thrive
