SITUATION
1 Madford Court is the top flat of a town centre three storey building set away from passing traffic and accessed either via The White Hart car park or Chings Alley.  

The property is within the primary commercial area of the town with social, commercial and shopping facilities immediately at hand.  Launceston, sitting astride the A30 dual carriageway spine road for Cornwall and Devon, enjoys a better balance of travelling distance to all parts of the two counties than any other centre.  Eastwards Exeter (42 miles) provides international airport, M5 motorway link and intercity rail link.  Southwards Plymouth (28 miles) provides intercity rail link and continental ferry port. 

Launceston is well placed to tap into areas of outstanding natural beauty in all directions.  To the north is the rugged north Cornish coast famed for popular family surfing beaches and quaint former fishing villages.  To the west are the open spaces of Bodmin Moor ideal for walking and riding.  To the east Dartmoor National Park and to the south the hidden secrets of the Tamar Valley steeped in 18th
century mining history.
