Central St Ives location, short walk to beaches and harbour
Approximately 450 sq ft, compact two-bedroom layout
Open-plan kitchen/living/dining on ground floor
Previously successful holiday let — investment potential
Granite walls likely without insulation; upgrade recommended
Electric boiler and radiators — running costs may be high
Slow broadband and average mobile signal; not ideal for heavy remote work
Local area shows above-average crime and some deprivation
A compact mid-terraced cottage tucked into Dove Street, central St Ives, within easy walking distance of beaches, the harbour and town amenities. The ground floor offers an open-plan kitchen/living/dining area; two bedrooms, a shower room and separate WC sit upstairs. The property totals about 450 sq ft and has been run successfully as a holiday let, suiting investors, a seaside bolt-hole or a pied-à-terre.
Practical points are straightforward: the cottage is freehold with double glazing (install date unknown) and electric boiler/radiator heating. The granite-built walls are likely uninsulated as-original, so buyers should budget for any insulation or energy-efficiency improvements. Broadband speeds are reported slow and mobile signal average — factors to note if remote working is essential.
This is a genuine central-location opportunity in St Ives with proven short-let income potential and easy access to shops, galleries and leisure. Important negatives are the small overall size (approx. 450 sq ft), higher-than-average local crime statistics, and a general need to consider insulation and heating running costs. For investors or buyers wanting a low-maintenance second home close to the harbour, the cottage presents clear upside with realistic upgrade scope.
