St Ives Listed As Beautiful Cambridgeshire Town To Move To In 2022

February 1st 2022

The Cambridgeshire Live website names St Ives as one of the finest places to live in the local area, and we whole heartily agree. They also address the elephant in the room that the St Ives in Cornwall is not the only place with its name, and as they rightly point out, our local St Ives is more than a match for the other location!

One of the most impressive things about the local area is the variety of shopping on offer. As you would expect from a market town, there is always something of interest available for sale. If you are looking for a shopping experience that isn’t the same as is being delivered by every town or city, you need to find a place that has a number of independent shops to check out.

You can spend a day, or a lot of the week, checking out the independent boutiques of St Ives, and we are sure that you will find something you love. No matter your budget, and no matter your taste, there is a lot to like about local life.

Of course, being so close to the Great River Ouse ensures you always have a chance to enjoy a good walk. This is something that is hugely important these days, and we know prospective homebuyers are looking for areas with a lot of open space.

This means buyers for St Ives have a great starting point for activities, and if you are a local homeowner, you have an immediate selling point that helps you connect with likely buyers.
