For a couple easing toward retirement and over 50, New Park offers the perfect, welcoming environment for those looking for a great destination to settle in, with excellent shopping facilities and plenty of places to potter nearby. The town sits right at the gateway to Dartmoor, so you can step into gentle woodland trails or more challenging moorland walks without needing to drive far, and it has excellent shops, cafés and services that mean you don’t have to travel for the basics. If you prefer coastal scenery, Teignmouth and Shaldon are around twenty minutes away, with wider stretches of the South Devon coastline reachable in under forty. It’s a place where you can stay active, enjoy the outdoors and still have everything you need close at hand, which is exactly what many people look for as they plan the next chapter of their lives.
New Park is well-established and fairly large, yet it doesn’t feel impersonal, as it weaves through various sections, each individually named, that feel like mini-communities within one larger, friendly park. There are gentle inclines in a couple of places, and walks to a pretty lake where there’s also a seating area for a bit of peace, or a natter with other residents – the choice is yours. Regular social gatherings, informal meet-ups and a shared pride in the park create a warm and welcoming culture. Pets are welcome – residents can bring a dog or cat to live with them, and every home has its own garage and parking space. For those looking to future-proof their options, or who may not drive, there’s even a bus stop right at the entrance to the park, and a mobile library visits once a week. It is this balance of tranquility and convenience that makes New Park such a compelling choice for long-term living. Part exchange is available at this park, and although you can choose your preferred home on several plots available to view, there are two stunning homes sited and available for early occupation so your move could be quick if you’re keen to get started on your new lifestyle – a Manor Berkeley Plus priced at £249,00 and a Warkton Platinum at £360,000, both built by Manor Park Homes, well known for their exacting build standards.
