Energy-efficient show home now open in Hemyock

A ribbon cutting ceremony has marked the opening of our newest show home at Oak Mount in the Mid Devon village of Hemyock.

Hemyock’s Parish Council Chairman, Cllr Paul Doble performed the opening. He said: “We are pleased to see this development is offering a good range of open market and affordable houses, and the Parish Council looks forward to receiving the three hectares of community land for new and existing residents of Hemyock to enjoy.”

The show home, a detached Hockinston style house has four bedrooms, an open plan kitchen/dining area, convenient utility room, downstairs study, allocated parking and showcases the firm’s highest specification fixtures and fittings.

Janine Dixon, Sales Advisor at Oak Mount said, “It’s brilliant to have officially launched the new show home and we’re looking forward to showing prospective buyers around. We’ve already secured five reservations off-plan, which shows a real appetite for these new homes in Hemyock.”

Oak Mount is a development of 40 new energy-efficient three and four-bedroom homes designed to be sympathetic to local character and history.

Each of the new homes will be served by an air source heat pump which will provide a low carbon heating alternative to gas. Heat pumps absorb heat from the outside air and circulate it through the heating system to heat the home. Upon completion, homeowners will receive a full home demo which will include advice and information about using and maintaining their heat pump to ensure maximum efficiency.

Director of Sales and Marketing, Paul Furner said, “This development is really special and superbly located for families as it is close to outstanding schools and the village centre. It is also set within the Blackdown Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which is great for walking and cycling. We would encourage anyone looking to move to the area to get in touch and book an appointment to visit the show home.”

Homeowners will be able to take advantage of the village’s local amenities including a shop, Post Office and Parish Hall where weekly clubs and groups are held. The homes are also within commuting distance of both Exeter and Taunton.

Funds released from the development have been allocated by Mid Devon District Council to primary and secondary educational facilities and for school transport. Further Section 106 contributions include the allocation of public open space on the development for community recreation and enjoyment.
