Standing in a slightly elevated position just above the historic market town of Liskeard, this phase of Liskerrett Vale creates an attractive collection of two, three and four bedroom homes.

These new homes have been designed with families in mind, excepting the pretty stone fronted coach house, which is ideal for a couple. They have private gardens and patios with larger properties having integral or detached garages and/or off road parking. They all have stylish and contemporary interiors with fashionable kitchens, bathrooms and some fabulous finishing touches.

Within easy reach of Liskeard town centre and the local schools, supermarkets and leisure centre, Liskerrett Vale is also within easy reach of the main access routes to Cornwall and the coast, Plymouth and Launceston.

Liskeard is a small market town at the head of the Looe Valley, an attractive and viable alternative to Plymouth and Launceston with the added benefit of being very close to the wildly romantic Cornish coast.
