On England's beautiful south coast, this home resides in the heart of the old town of Hastings. The town has been a settlement for over 1200 years and gave its name to the battle that took place after William the Conqueror's invasion of 1066. With so much history in the local area, it's fitting that your home feels like a nod to the past, too. With original features, such as the old fireplace and wooden floorboards, it's decorated like a bohemian artist's den with unique oddities and idiosyncrasies in every room -- though if you're not a fan of taxidermy, you might want to sit this one out. However, behind all of this eccentricity, you'll find a beautiful property full of comfortable stylish touches. Prepare a delicious meal in the rustic country kitchen before gathering around the dining table to eat, perhaps with the log-burner crackling in the background. Come evening, nothing will beat an indulgent soak in the freestanding clawfoot tub, while you also have your own private patio garden that's positively teeming with greenery. When you want to venture outside, the beautiful buildings of Hastings' old town – including antique shops, pubs and seafood shops – are all around, and the sandy beach is just a short, eight-minute walk away, too.
