Marie Fratta, an elementary school teacher from New York, has won the 2024 HGTV Dream Home on Anastasia Island in Florida. HGTV Network announced her win on Wednesday.

Fratta, who lives in Hawthorne, NY, in Westchester County, is the first person from New York to win this contest since it started in 1997. Fratta is a mother of three daughters. Over 130 million entries were submitted for the sweepstakes.

The voting for the 3,300-square-foot home ended in mid-February.

The total value of the HGTV Dream Home 2024 package is estimated at just over $2.2 million. Fratta will receive:

  • Keys to the fully furnished home, including all furnishings, fixtures, artwork, and merchandise, valued at around $2,069,595
  • A new Mercedes-Benz E Class sedan worth about $70,000
  • $100,000 in cash

The contest rules offer a “cash option” instead of the home. If Fratta chooses this option, she would receive $650,000 in cash. If she cannot take possession of the home, she will automatically receive the cash option. The total value of the grand prize with the cash option is $820,000.
