After many happy years living in Salcombe, Tim and Sharon were looking for a home that would better suit the next chapter of their lives. Now retired, they wanted a property that offered modern comfort, lower running costs and less maintenance, while still allowing them to enjoy the things they love.
With a property to sell, Tim and Sharon were able to take advantage of Acorn Property Group’s Assisted Move scheme, which proved invaluable when the sale of their existing home encountered an unexpected setback.
“When we lost our first buyer, the Assisted Move scheme gave us peace of mind by holding our reservation on our chosen plot. It allowed us the time we needed to secure another buyer and continue with the move without losing the home we had chosen.”
The support gave the couple confidence to continue with their move to Green Park in Chillington, a development that offered everything they were hoping to find in a new home.
“We were looking for a home that would be easier and more economical to run, with excellent insulation, environmentally friendly features and lower heating costs. We also wanted a sunny garden that was easy to maintain but still gave us space to grow vegetables and enjoy being outdoors.”
Having also visited another Show Home at Rolle Gardens in Exmouth, Tim and Sharon were already impressed by the quality of the specification and attention to detail. Their search then led them to Green Park, where the setting, design and energy-efficient features stood out.
The new homes at Green Park include the latest sustainable technology, with PV panels, air source heat pumps, triple glazing and underfloor heating, all contributing to an EPC rating of A and lower running costs.*
“We were particularly drawn to the high standard of finish, the attractive views, the double garage and the practical layout, which also included a utility room. Green Park offered everything we were looking for in our new dream home.”
“Acorn were very helpful in assisting us through the process of choosing and purchasing our new home. The team were always approachable and guided us through each stage.”
Now settled into their new home at Green Park, Tim and Sharon are enjoying all the advantages of modern living in a beautiful South Hams location. The homes are perfectly located in the heart of Chillington, surrounded by everyday amenities, while still being within easy reach of the Devon countryside and coastal destinations such as Salcombe and Torcross.
“Green Park has given us exactly what we were hoping to find — a comfortable, energy-efficient home that’s easy to maintain, with plenty of space, lovely views and a wonderful setting for our life.”
If you’re looking to make a move, now is the perfect time to explore Green Park. With a selection of thoughtfully designed, energy-efficient homes available, buyers can discover modern living in a desirable South Hams village setting.
The Show Home is open Thursday to Saturday, 10am to 5pm.
*An EPC rating of A makes your new home cheaper to run, cutting the average energy bill by £421 per year, so 21% lower compared to an older property. Indicative figures based on the HBF “Watt a Save” report published February 2026.
