The owners of Caple ne Ferne – a singular and storied 19th-century house spanning some 7,180 sq ft – describe the work they have undertaken to bring this behemoth back to life. Scarlett, an interior designer, admits "there isn't really a surface in the house that we haven't touched" in what is now an enchanting family home, just a short walk from the beach and the town's thriving independent scene.
