Summary - 24 WESLEY PLACE ST IVES TR26 1SL
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Seaside period home with sea view and proven short-let income potential..
Three bedrooms across four storeys, approx. 745 sq ft
Set just a short stroll from St Ives harbour, this stone-built terraced home offers compact four-storey accommodation and a private courtyard — rare in the town centre. The top floor benefits from sea glimpses that appeal to holidaymakers and buyers wanting a coastal bolt-hole. Historically run successfully as a holiday let, it presents an immediate income opportunity or a comfortable family base with strong tourist demand.
The house is traditional in construction (circa early 20th century) with double glazing installed post-2002, hardwood floors and exposed beams giving character. Accommodation is arranged over multiple levels, including three bedrooms and one bathroom within approximately 745 sq ft — a practical layout for short-term rentals or a small family. The location delivers convenience to shops, cafes, galleries and schools, and fast broadband supports holiday bookings or remote work.
There are important considerations: the plot is very small and the property sits within a medium flood-risk area. The granite walls are likely uninsulated and the house will benefit from targeted updating to heating, insulation and decorative elements to improve comfort and reduce running costs. The surrounding area scores as more deprived with above-average local crime statistics, which should be weighed against the strong central location and rental potential.
This home suits a buyer seeking a Seaside investment or a compact period home to renovate and personalise. For an investor it offers an established short-let track record; for an owner-occupier it provides immediate access to St Ives life but will require some works to fully modernise and protect against coastal exposure and flood risk.
