Heylo and Allison Homes bring new wave of affordable coastal living to Devon

A recent study reveals that homes near some of Britain’s beaches command an average premium of 20% compared to similar inland properties*, highlighting the growing demand and cost of coastal living. Providing a more accessible way to enjoy life by the sea, Heylo has partnered with Allison Homes to deliver a new wave of affordable homes across three developments along the sought-after Devon coastline through Home Reach’s Shared Ownership scheme.

Spanning three picturesque locations, the partnership is bringing three- and four-bedroom homes to Primrose Meadows in Bradworthy, Weavers Place in North Tawton and Foxglove View in Buckland Brewer. Ready to move into now, Primrose Meadows offers spacious family homes in the tranquil village of Bradworthy, while Weavers Place is set along the scenic River Taw. Also available is Foxglove View, a contemporary range of three- and four-bedroom homes in the historical village of Buckland Brewer, offering buyers the chance to enjoy rural charm with easy access to North Devon’s coastline.

Melissa Toomey, Director of Sales at Home Reach, comments; “Living by the coast is a highly desirable way of life, but as we know, this often comes with a premium when purchasing a home. We’re proud to be offering an affordable route to homeownership in such a sought-after location and to be working in partnership with Allison Homes to help more people make their dream of coastal living a reality. Our variety of developments across the county is a testament to our commitment of supporting first time buyers onto the property ladder – giving customers the choice of house type and location across three different developments.”

James Pennington, Group Partnership & Investment Director at Allison Homes Group Limited comments: “We’re pleased to be working in partnership with Heylo to offer Home Reach at three of our developments in Devon. Affordability remains a real barrier for buyers, and this partnership helps us open the door to more of our customers by offering flexible, lower-deposit options in some of the region’s most sought-after locations. Together, we’re combining quality design with greater accessibility to help more people put down roots in places they truly want to live.”
