Synopsis
The same, in a way, could be said of her house. Just a few streets from the beaches of the buzzing Cornish university town of Falmouth, this grand Edwardian home is an easy-going combination of period elegance and modern comfort or, as Sarah Jane herself puts it: ‘an eclectic mélange of contemporary and traditional’. Its three stories with a steeply sloping slate roof feature gloriously high-ceilinged rooms with timber sash windows, an abundance of period features and no less than 11 fireplaces, but inside is no stuffy, expensive recreation of a bygone era; instead, it’s a busy family home-cum-workspace, in which upcycled house clearance bargains rub shoulders with high-street finds, French brocante, vintage pieces and the occasional antique. The result? Instantly attractive and appealing.
