Set in peaceful St. Ive, this traditional stone cottage offers a generous footprint (approx. 1,435 sq ft) and a large enclosed south-facing garden — ideal for family life and pets. The house has three double bedrooms, two bathrooms, three reception rooms including a conservatory and lounge with a wood burner, plus a useful garage workshop with power and private driveway parking.
The property is sold freehold at online auction (30 July 2025). It requires renovation throughout, so it’s best suited to buyers wanting to add value and personalise finishes. Practical notes: heating is via bottled Calor gas, there’s a shared septic tank with neighbours, broadband speeds are very slow and the sale is unconditional with a buyers’ premium and 28-day completion requirement; please review the legal pack for full costs and conditions.
Local amenities support family life: good-rated primary and secondary schools are nearby, and Liskeard (approx. 4 miles) provides shops, rail links and services. The hamlet setting, very low crime rate and excellent mobile signal make this a quiet, well-connected rural base for someone prepared to carry out works and improvements.
View this as a roomy countryside project with clear upside for the right buyer — bring a renovation plan and allow for shared drainage works, slow broadband remediation and auction fees when budgeting.
