Devonshire Homes – Chilla Junction

Devonshire Homes | Halwill Junction, Devon
Clayton & Company were commissioned by Devonshire Homes to deliver the show home interior design for Chilla Junction, a small collection of thoughtfully designed homes set within the rural Devon village of Halwill Junction.
Surrounded by open countryside with views towards Dartmoor National Park, the development offers a peaceful village setting while remaining well connected to nearby towns and transport links. The design approach for the show home was therefore focused on creating interiors that reflected both the natural surroundings and the relaxed pace of rural living.
Natural light plays a key role throughout the property. Large glazing and garden views flood the open-plan living areas with daylight, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere from the moment visitors enter the home.
To complement this setting, the interior scheme combines soft neutral tones, warm woods and layered natural textures, creating a calm and inviting environment that feels both contemporary and comfortable. Carefully selected furniture pieces and styling elements were used to subtly define each living space while maintaining a cohesive flow throughout the home.
In show homes like this, the goal extends beyond furnishing a property. Thoughtful interior design helps prospective buyers connect emotionally with the space – allowing them to imagine the lifestyle the home offers as much as the layout itself.
The finished scheme highlights the strength of the property’s architecture and natural light, while presenting a home that feels aspirational, welcoming and effortlessly liveable.
This project demonstrates how carefully considered show home interior design for property developers can help bring a new development to life and inspire buyers from the moment they step inside.
