HGTV To Feature Alexandria Lottery Winners

ALEXANDRIA, VA—If you live in the Alexandria area, you might see some familiar faces if you turn on HGTV later this week.

An Alexandria couple that won a top $1 million prize in the Virginia lottery will appear on HGTV's "My Lottery Dream Home" Friday, Oct. 13 at 7:30 p.m.

Andy and Valerie Shreeve won the prize in Golden Spades Scratcher game last October. Andy bought the winning ticket at the Kingstowne Sunoco (5800 Kingstowne Center Drive). Rather than take the full $ 1 million over 30 years, the couple opted for the cash option of $561,798 before taxes.

At the time, it was a double win for them, as they were celebrating the birth of their daughter. Now they can show viewers nationwide how their family has enjoyed their winnings.

My Lottery Dream Home features recent lottery winners from across the nation on house hunts for their new home. Whether the winners have millions or thousands, it's exciting to find out if the home buyers will go all out for a mansion or be fickle within a budget.

What kind of home did the Shreeve family buy? You'll have to tune in to HGTV Friday to find out!
