“We looked at 50 properties and then three months later I had a call from the estate agent, saying this one was back on the market” Left: Open shelving and concealed wall cupboards provide plenty of storage space for kitchen sundries Below left & right: A doorway at the back of the kitchen leads to an almost labyrinthine twist of storage, utility room, laundry drying space and downstairs shower room velvet covered sofas in the sitting room. “And lived in a lot of rentals, so I’m very quick at making a place look like home.” But there is nothing transient about this quirky house on a quiet corner in St Leonards’ fashionable ‘Mercatoria’ area – perhaps because it was Sarah Jane’s second go at living in the Hastings locale. “I moved to St Leonards-on-Sea 15 years ago,” she says, “to be near my best friend, Angie, who I met when I was 20. But just 18 months later she died. I was heartbroken and couldn’t stay in Hastings.” But in the way these things do, it all worked out, because by then Sarah Jane had met and married her husband, visual artist Mark Pulsford, and with her son Otis at a good stage in his education to move schools, they shifted east, to live in Mark’s house, near Canterbury. priceless-magazines.com 30
