New HQ doubles office space for housebuilder

West country house builder Devonshire Homes has announced it will be moving its HQ to a Grade II listed building in the heart of Tiverton, Devon, due to continued expansion. 

The firm has acquired Gotham House, an 18th Century Georgian townhouse on Phoenix Lane. After expanding its team by close to 50% within the last two  years, 37 members of staff will be making the move from Devonshire Homes’ Lowman Green office in Tiverton to Gotham House in December.

After being rebuilt following a fire in 1731, Gotham House has a rich history and offers three floors of office space. 

Angus Cook, managing director at Devonshire Homes, commented: “We’re delighted to announce that as a result of continued business expansion, we are moving into Gotham House. Devonshire Homes has grown rapidly in the last 18 months and so have welcomed many new starters to our team which means we have outgrown our existing office at Lowman Green.

“As a team, we like being based in Tiverton, but we simply need more space. A move to this Grade II listed building ensures that we remain in the town that we have always called home, whilst enjoying more space inside an office with such impressive history.”
