Columbus Couple Giving Away Home To Best Essay Writer

Last updated on Tuesday, June 23, 2015

(COLUMBUS) - What if you were told you could own a 6,200-square-foot home on almost 5-acres of property, complete with an indoor pool?

That dream could be a reality -- not if the price is right, but if the essay is right.

Tim and Deanna Railing are giving away their custom-built log cabin in Columbus to one lucky contestant.

The contest costs $150 to enter. They're asking people to write a 250 word or less essay on "A Life Well Lived."

The deadline is Nov. 16, 2015. The couple will only give the house away to a winner if they receive a minimum of 4,500 entries.

The Railings said they saw the idea on the news when someone in Maine did something similar.

The house is located west of downtown Columbus, between Columbus and Nashville.
