Property description

DESCRIPTION
Lakefield is a detached, individual , two storey farmhouse with some genteel aspect in terms of proportions of the main reception room and bedroom, walled frontage garden and elegant grassy driveway. The potential to  create a lovely family home  is tremendous. Additionally there are dilapidated and old outbuildings around a former sloping grassy former farmyard now a rear garden which also present possible further development opportunities.
SITUATION  
Launceston sits in the Kensey Valley huddled around a Norman Castle with pretty Medieval streets and a superb collection of listed town buildings.   The centre provides a range of social, commercial and shopping facilities with many boutique local shops and typical former market town historic charm.  

In all directions from the town there is scenery of outstanding natural beauty, be it the rugged coastline famed for popular family surfing beaches and picturesque former fishing villages to the north, the open expanses of Bodmin Moor to the west  ideal for walking and riding, Dartmoor National Park  to the east and  running southwards to Plymouth Sound on the south coast the hidden secrets of the Tamar Valley steeped in 18th Century mining history and renowned for Salmon fishing. 

To the west and east of Launceston are two of the country’s   prettiest cathedral town’s with Truro to the west (some 49 miles) and Exeter to the east some (44 miles).   At Exeter is an intercity rail link, M5 motorway link and international airport. South of Launceston is the city of Plymouth (28 miles) with Continental Ferry Port.
