KNOXVILLE, Tenn.--()--Scottsdale resident Dan Cavanaugh had even more to be thankful for this Thanksgiving as he recently was handed the keys to the HGTV Urban Oasis® 2014, an All-New 2015 Acura TLX and $50,000, provided by national mortgage lender Quicken Loans.

While his current home is a ranch in Scottsdale, Arizona, Cavanaugh also has ties to the Atlanta area having worked just blocks from the HGTV Urban Oasis 2014 for many years.

“When I saw that Atlanta was the location for the HGTV Urban Oasis from watching on TV, I started entering,” said Cavanaugh. “I knew the area from working there for years, and the pictures of the place totally sold me. But, seeing it in person, the place is even more spectacular.”

“I guess you never expect to win. When I got the call from HGTV I thought my friends were joking with me and didn’t call back right away. I couldn’t believe that I’d won. Now that I am actually here and seeing it all, it’s still kind of a fantasy.”

This lucky winner was selected from more than 22 million entries for the HGTV Urban Oasis 2014, an approximately 2,000-square-foot residence on the 37th floor of The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Atlanta. Decorated by interior designer Lindsay Pumpa, the fully furnished HGTV Urban Oasis 2014 features two bedrooms and two and one-half baths, with spectacular views from every room.

The winner also will enjoy signature amenities at The Residences, including 24-hour room service and concierge, as well as access to Mandarin Oriental, Atlanta’s spa facilities, salt-water pool and fitness center.

The fully furnished residence features products from AllModern, KOHLER and The Sherwin-Williams Company, sponsors of the HGTV Urban Oasis 2014. To see photos of the winner and a virtual tour of the HGTV Urban Oasis, visit HGTV.com/hgtvurbanoasis.
