EDMONTON -- The largest fundraiser for Big Brothers Big Sisters has a grand prize $1.25-million dream home plus $100,000 in cash up for grabs.

The bungalow-style home at 31 Easton Close in north St. Albert is high efficiency. 

“This year we decided to add on solar panels, also an electric car charger,” said Dream Home coordinator Gloria Lawrence. “We’ve gone the whole nine yards with high efficiency appliances, all the extra features like a three-seasons room, heated floors in the garage, the ensuite, and in the basement.”
