Our Story
For more than 30 years, Devonshire Homes has been committed to building high quality new homes across the West Country. As an independent, award-winning house builder, we strive to provide homes that not only meet the needs of house hunters, but which are sympathetic to the surrounding environment.
Our roots are firmly based in the West Country and we’ve been successfully building new homes and communities in towns and rural areas across the South West since 1992.
All our new homes sites are individually designed to create bespoke new neighbourhoods, which are sympathetic to their locality, reflecting and celebrating the characteristics and style of their surroundings.
As a wholly owned subsidiary of London & Devonshire Trust Ltd we’ve built over 1,500 new homes and created more than 30 new communities.
We take a partnership approach to ensure that we deliver beautiful homes that people will fall in love with.
Our partners include award winning architects, high-calibre and trusted suppliers, and industry respected agencies including Housing Growth Partnership, Homes England and LiveWest – all of whom play a significant role in the success of our developments.
We have a diverse portfolio of sought-after properties from single bedroom apartments to five bedroom detached family homes.
We’ve built traditional countryside homes with charming thatched roofs, contemporary apartments and new houses, and even redeveloped Grade II listed buildings to create truly striking and individual sets of homes. Drawing on our years of experience, we have developed our own portfolio of stylish, practical homes known as 'The Legacy Collection'.
Each of our properties are constructed and finished to Devonshire Homes’ own high standards. Our homes use less energy, consume optimally using heating systems such as Air Source and Ground Source heating and are truly beautiful inside and out.
Committed to the communities we build in, we actively support charities and causes across the region and have fundraised over £78,000 for our charities of the year which have included Hospiscare, Children’s Hospice South West, William Wates Memorial Trust, South West Blood Bikes, Cornwall Blood Bikes and our current charity CHAT (who provide support to those with financial and housing difficulties).
Our staff regularly participate in a variety of fundraising challenges and activities from fun runs to half marathons, coffee mornings to Christmas jumper days and gruelling cycling challenges to exhilarating sky dives.
At Devonshire Homes, we ensure to be by your side every step of the way in the buying and moving process. We understand that it is a huge decision to purchase a new home which is why our customer services team are trained to the highest standard, striving to deliver a first-class service to help make the process as smooth as possible. We have created a Customer Journey which takes purchasers from reservation through the end of their two-year warranty, full details can be found under Customer Service.
By following the New Homes Quality Code, we make sure our customers are well-informed and fairly treated throughout the process of searching for and securing their new home. By choosing a Devonshire Home, homeowners can enjoy a new home and buying experience from a specialist West Country property company.
Our dedicated and experienced team continues to grow and this allows us to continue creating distinctive and desirable homes in the West Country year after year.
