The former seaside home of Charles Dickens has been put on the market for £2 million.

The six-bedroom Grade II listed property in Broadstairs, Kent was built in 1801 and was where the author wrote part of his novel David Copperfield.

Dickens is believed to have planned his novel Bleak House at the property, which was a favoured summer residence.

Businessman Richard Hilton currently owns the property, which is now called Bleak House.
