Built around the area, not around our diary.
Ivybridge has grown fast. The town centre keeps its older granite and slate character, while estates around Filham, Woodlands and Erme Court are largely 1980s onward — solid stock that often takes very well to extension and conversion.
We've extended modern detached homes off the A38, converted lofts in older properties down by the Erme, and renovated rural cottages out toward Ermington and Ugborough.
Ivybridge sits inside South Hams District Council's planning area, with parts adjoining Dartmoor National Park. We deal with both regularly and know what each authority will and won't approve.
