Shared Ownership in Devon
Explore Shared Ownership developments in Devon
If we say ‘Devon’ you might immediately think of clotted cream on scones, tranquil walks by the sea, and peaceful fishing villages. While the county offers all of this, it is also a fantastic place to live and work. Towns and cities such as Exeter, Barnstaple, and Plymouth offer great employment and educational facilities.
Not all of our properties will be available for a new release. But if you had found a development you were interested in and were just a little too late in registering your interest or purchasing, you can find future re-release homes by selecting avaiable or coming soon properties from the filter.
If the high property prices in places such as Salcombe and Exeter are off-putting, a Shared Ownership property could be the answer.
The county provides a coastal way of life, with many residents taking up water sports and boating. Picture-perfect postcard fishing towns make up much of the coastline in Devon. Exmoor and Dartmoor offer beautifully remote countryside further inland.

If you want wide open spaces, it doesn’t get much better than Dartmoor. From moorlands to river valleys, this is an incredible place to walk, run, or cycle. Dartmoor is also surrounded by quaint villages and farms—fresh produce and welcoming pubs are all on your doorstep.
