Jonathan and Kay settle into their new home in Exeter
Jonathan and Kay were on the look out for a new home in a good location that came with an excellent EPC rating and a contemporary style.When asked why they chose Lunar Rise, the couple said: “The predicted EPC A-rating and forward-looking sustainability approach with the heat network was a big tick for us. Energy costs are particularly high now and seem set to increase, so we loved the idea of having a home where this burden would be less and the rewards would be felt in time.
“The homes at Lunar Rise include solar panels, triple-glazing, insulated cavity walls and EV charging points which were all bonus points and important considerations for us.”
The couple went on to praise the Eynsford house type: “The Eynsford stood out to us for its layout and size. We especially love the open space lounge, the hallway and appreciate the spaciousness that the landing and bathrooms in particular offer.
“We also like the configuration of each of the upstairs bedrooms which are all big enough to accommodate double beds. Fortunately, we were involved early on in the process so we could tailor the home to our needs, it’s kitted out just as we wanted. It feels like a home we can comfortably grow into and really make our own.”
When asked why they decided on a new build property, Kay replied: “Jonathan’s family had positive experiences with buying new build properties, so this bolstered our confidence to go for one too. When the opportunity to purchase at Lunar Rise came about, we couldn’t turn it down for the reasons mentioned above, especially the EPC factor, as this is something you’ll only realistically get with newly built homes.”
Describing their buying journey with Taylor Wimpey, the couple replied: “We had a positive experience thanks to the sales team at Lunar Rise. They kept us in the loop on all the important developments throughout, clearly explained timelines, the next steps and answered any questions we had, which for us as first-time buyers was invaluable.”
Looking to the future, Jonathan and Kay said: “We’re excited to see how things develop over the coming years. We are loving life in our new home, we're so happy with how things have turned out. We’re now in the process of truly making it into a home but there’s no rush!
“The best thing for us so far in the early days has been the quick and easy access to shops and amenities as we gradually set things up.”

When asked about his experience as an apprentice with Taylor Wimpey, Aidan said: “I’ve learned so much about infrastructure and the stages to creating a development, from planning the development to construction. I’ve been given great exposure and plenty of opportunities to develop my skills and I'm really enjoying it.”
On completion of his course next year, Aidan will gain a Bachelors in Engineering alongside becoming an Incorporated Engineer with the Institution of Civil Engineers.
Aidan continued: “I really enjoy working for Taylor Wimpey, some of the key highlights for me so far have been the launch of the show homes at Lunar Rise and the completion of the first few homes on site. It's a project I've been heavily involved in so it’s really nice to see my work come to life on the development.”
Sarah Williams, Technical Director at Taylor Wimpey Exeter, said: “Showing our appreciation for the hard work that our staff do is so important to us, and we’re so proud of Aidan and everything he has achieved so far on his apprenticeship. Our apprenticeships are designed to give the right balance between classroom learning and hands-on experience. We wish Aidan the best of luck in his studies and I’m looking forward to viewing his continued development first hand whilst he is with us.”
