This compact mid-terrace townhouse sits on Bedford Road, a central St Ives location within easy walking distance of the harbour and Porthmeor and Porthminster beaches. The house has been sympathetically newly renovated to combine period character — double-height bay windows and sash-style detailing — with a clean, modern interior including an updated kitchen, two bathrooms and a top‑floor bedroom with rooftop bay views.
The property is arranged over three floors and currently performs well as a lettings proposition, making it attractive to investors seeking coastal rental income. The sunny south-facing courtyard is fully enclosed and offers private outdoor space, but is very small and accessed from a rear lane — better suited to brief outdoor use than extensive gardening.
Buyers should note material practicalities: the home occupies a modest overall footprint (809 sq ft) with a very small plot, broadband speeds are slow, and the local area records above-average crime and higher deprivation indicators. External maintenance items are visible (light roof mossing) and the original granite/whinstone walls are assumed to lack cavity insulation, which may affect heating costs despite mains gas central heating.
Overall this is a well-presented, characterful central St Ives house that offers immediate rental potential or a comfortable compact home for someone wanting town and beach access. The strongest appeal is location and presentation; budget for ongoing maintenance and some energy-efficiency improvements if resale or long-term letting yields are a priority.
