More lovely Ocean Reach purchasers

When we started our Ocean Reach project some 6 years ago we had this romantic idea of our purchasers being picked by us on the basis that if we could sit at a dinner table and enjoy a great evening, then they were the right purchasers to join us with our vision of Ocean Reach. All the powers that be, told us to ‘live in the real world’ as we would be property developers and would not care as long as we got a sale. Hazel and I were adamant that we would  not be property developers, but a couple who were developing a property from our hearts.  We are pleased to say that so far we have the ideal purchasers and are still developing with our hearts. We have now sold house Ocean Reach Five  to a lovely couple who want to rent it out to our loyal vast bunch of Port Light customers. This is great for owners, us and the local economy, further  re enforcing the whole ethos of our vision for Ocean Reach. The build is way ahead of schedule thanks to Kris Mahon of WM Construction and his merry band of tradesmen who have really pulled out the stops to enable stress free viewings. Kris has gone way beyond his duty as a builder by being at every sales viewing and been honest and open with the clients which re enforces the quality build  he and his team are providing. We are equally proud that he regularly posts pictures of their work on Facebook knowing that his craftsmanship is faultless. The painters start on number One next week and the first fix M &E on houses 1 – 5 is now complete. Houses 6&7 are almost up to roof plate and the garage roof goes on very soon. Andy Beer of RBS has held our hand throughout whilst sharing his years of invaluable experience, and not to forget Chris Watkins of Charles Head who has looked after our interested whilst ensuring the purchasers are comfortable with their decision and have a fair deal. There are more sales in the pipeline but I am already getting excited about marketing the accommodation side and Hazel and I will be planning the updated Ocean Reach letting side of the website. We are extremely confident that we will have a world class venue in the sleepy paradise of the South Hams.

The evenings are now drawing out and the builders are now enjoying some amazing sunsets whilst they work on to get the first five houses ready for June. We are extremely pleased to announce that number Two Ocean Reach is now under offer to another lovely family who love the panoramic views and tranquilly of Bolberry Down, whist being close to Hope Cove and Salcombe. We have further strong interest in the remaining two bedroom houses and should be able to announce more positive news very soon. The builders are flying along with the garages nearly complete and the restaurant well under way. Landscaping will start soon to catch the growing season, and the Vision will very much start to become a reality. WM Construction have adopted a ‘belt and braces’ approach to the build which gives us confidence for another 100 years!

Our first sale already

We are pleased to post that One Ocean Reach is now in the hands of Solicitors. The purchasers are a lovely couple from Bristol who have the same passion for Ocean Reach and its environment as we do!

Amazing progress

The Ocean Reach development is really taking shape and is 5 weeks ahead of schedule. Our skilled builders WM construction SW ltd have been busy helping us refine the quality and construction as the houses are being built. Houses 1&2 now have a roof and the windows are being fitted during this week. We are please that all our trades. And suppliers are local, further fuelling the local economy. The restaurant will be started very soon and we are currently planning the kitchen, along with the very latest state of the art extraction and ventilation system. The restaurant has been specially designed to maximise the views but not to let any tinkling of glasses disturb the residents.

I still have to pinch myself when I admire the amazing views as I cannot believe we have managed to achieve a sea view from every window!

We still have a vast data base of Port Light customers all waiting to holiday back on Bolberry Down. Please be patient, it will be well worth the wait!

Kris Mahon, Director of WM constriction is a whizz with his media publicity and posts weekly updates on their Facebook page. If you “like” their FB page you can watch the build progress.

Charles Head Estate agents are marketing the houses but please feel free to contact myself or Hazel if you have any questions or just want to talk about our exciting world class project in the best location in the World! Bolberry Down in Devon.
