Leaving behind their lives in London wasn’t an easy choice for Jane McCarthy and her husband Johnny, but a move to the Jurassic coast in Dorset gave them the opportunity to do a dream renovation, start an interior design business and restore balance to their lives.
WHAT DREW YOU TO THIS PROPERTY?
‘The location. Nestled in a picture-postcard village, and only a short walk to breathtaking coastline, the cottage was everything we had envisaged leaving London for. Although surrounded by generous, mature gardens, the cottage itself was a warren of small rooms and felt dark and dingy. Johnny didn’t even think it was an option after our first viewing, but I could see that it had potential.’
