Who lives here: Charlotte Cosby, head of creative at Farrow & Ball, and her boyfriend
Location: Southbourne, Dorset county, England
Size: Two bedrooms, one bathroom
Finding this characterful, light and spacious apartment was no small task, and Charlotte Cosby spent 18 months searching for it.
“I had huge expectations and no budget,” Cosby says. “I wanted the world. I’m obsessed with light, so that was what I was gauging with every property I looked at. Most of the houses I could afford were dark, wedged between things or with a big tree in front of them, for example. But this one was so light, so open and so interesting. It has very high ceilings and the proportions are beautiful.”
It was love at first viewing. But because of that, Cosby admits, she failed to notice all of the building’s flaws.
