Brief Background – Nirvana Homes

The Company was founded in 2002 by Nigel Petas who set out to develop unused and dilapidated property in order to produce quality homes, while at the same time enhancing the locality of development sites.

The company has grown from the first development, a single 5 bedroom house, to the latest project which is 14 luxury apartments in one of Torquay’s most desirable residential areas.

Nirvana Homes is a small, family run company which places quality and customer satisfaction at the heart of every development.
