Summary -
5 Umfula Place,ST. IVES,TR26 1QF
TR26 1QF
2 bed 1 bath Cottage
Cosy coastal home with character and investment potential.
Two double bedrooms plus useful attic storage potential
This very sweet two-bedroom stone cottage sits in central St Ives, an easy walk to shops, galleries and cafés. Period sash windows, a cosy living room with a traditional fireplace and compact modern kitchen give the house immediate everyday comfort while retaining character. A handy attic space adds useful storage or potential for conversion (subject to consents).
The property has gas central heating and has successfully operated as a holiday let, so it will suit a first-time buyer wanting a ready-made coastal home or a buyer seeking a small income stream. A small rear courtyard and shed house the boiler; a garage is available by separate negotiation for buyers who need off-street parking.
Buyers should note several practical limitations: the plot is very small, broadband speeds are very slow, and local crime is above average. There is a high flooding risk for this postcode, which may affect insurance and future resilience. The wider area shows signs of deprivation and some local services are mixed in quality.
Overall this cottage offers immediate charm, compact low-maintenance living and holiday-let potential in a prime St Ives location, provided buyers accept the site constraints and ongoing flood and service considerations.
