The Guardian's fantasy house hunt this week, 'Homes for sale to inspire artists in England'

The Guardian's fantasy house hunt this week, 'Homes for sale to inspire artists in England', features a country retreat in Dorset where every room is its own gallery, on the market with Jackson-Stops Bridport and Dorchester with a guide price of £645,000.

"Bridport, Dorset. This market town suits those who prefer to be off the beaten track and yet enjoy a vibrant cultural scene. Nearby is the Artwave West contemporary art gallery, Bridport arts centre and the Electric Palace. In the town centre is a brightly decorated Grade II-listed Georgian house for sale. Each room is its own gallery with all available hanging space utilised, especially in the mint green sitting room. At the bottom of the garden is an artist’s studio with its own water and electricity supply, as well as a decked terrace."
