The Rural Housing 'Master Plan'

Here at South Devon Rural Housing  we are keen to demonstrate  our desire to develop housing sensitively in the villages of South Devon.  We believe it is not enough just to develop housing in isolation.  We also believe that even in the smallest of villages, some social and low cost housing is needed, to both support any existing social or low cost housing and to maintain the viability of small villages and settlements.  In some villages where we are able to procure land and obtain the necessary planning, we would like to offer allotments, amenity areas and orchards to aid sustainability.  See our section on Rural Housing for more information.

If you would like to discuss any of these ideas, please contact Steve Prime on 01803 847591.

WE NEED YOU! - Volunteers Wanted.

South Devon Rural Housing Association is a small community based organisation, providing housing and other related services to communities mainly within the South Hams.  We rely on local people  within our area of operation to become shareholders and to become Board Members on a voluntary basis.  We are particularly looking for new members who have skills or experience in the following areas:  Finance, Building and Development, Business or experience of Services for Older People.  We are also looking for volunteers to help in our Day Centre.  Please contact Steve Prime or Monika Pike to discuss volunteering.

 

New Affordable Homes in South Brent
 
 
Conversion and refurbishment works have started at Avondale House with an anticipated completion date of 16 May 2014. The scheme will provide 6 large three and four bed houses to accommodate larger families in the district who are overcrowded and in housing need.
 
The new homes will be offered to local people with a housing need to rent at 80% of local market rents.
 
The average house price in the village of South Brent is in the region of £220,000, this means many local people on average salaries are priced out of the housing market.
 
Households who wish to be considered for a vacancy need to register on Devon Home Choice  www.devonhomechoice.com
