In addition, with specialist departments for Commercial Property, Survey & Professional and New Homes, we deliver a comprehensive property service, with an enviable reputation as professionals in property. Launceston is the ancient capital of Cornwall. Attractions include the English Heritage Norman Castle and steam railway, narrow streets and plenty of Georgian and Victorian architecture. Excellent access can be gained to the A30 dual carriageway and both Bodmin Moor and Dartmoor. The town is 17 miles from the coastal resort and rugged cliff tops of Bude. Our town square is a conservation area and has a pedestrian-friendly shopping area with cobbled streets.  The Church of St Mary Magdalene in the town centre is one of the most heavily engraved in the country. Typical out-of-town buyers come from the West Midlands and South East seeking retirement/a slower pace of life which is what our county epitomises.  We have a hard-working Launceston in Bloom committee passionate about making the town look attractive throughout all seasons and the Town Council does an excellent job of maintenance and grass cutting.  In 2011 HRH the Duchess of Cornwall opened up a new refurbished Town Hall. Average prices here for houses for sale in Launceston are £187,000 (2011 figures) and typical properties in the town include Victorian semis and modern edge-of-town developments.  We also have a growing Fine and Country department.
