Nestled on the eastern bank of the Torridge estuary in the historic village of East-the-Water on the fringes of the market town of Bideford, Chapel Green is the latest lifestyle-led development of just 26 high-quality homes by award-winning Baker Estates. This carefully considered scheme has just been released, and as a smaller, more selct development, it is already attracting interest from those seeking easy, modern living in beautiful North Devon. This new neigbourhood will comprise a mixture of single-storey bungalows as well a two-storey chalet style homes, arranged around a quiet cul-de-sac.

East-the-Water village sits five miles upriver from the open sea and still retains a friendly, close-knit feel with its own doctor’s surgery and onsite pharmacy, a Tesco supermarket and highly rated Spar store, local pubs and takeaways, and even allotments. Across Bideford’s ancient Long Bridge lie further amenities such as the library, arts centre, Pannier market and retail outlets, while regular buses connect East-the-Water to Barnstaple, Westward Ho! and Appledore.

Chapel Green is perfectly placed for tranquil village living with easy access to this array of coastal, countryside and market-town attractions. The development comprises three home types: The Primrose, a spacious three-bedroom detached bungalow with two bathrooms; The Holly, a generous three-bedroom chalet bungalow with living space arranged over two floors; and The Daisy, a low-maintenance two-bedroom bungalow ideal for those seeking simplicity. Most properties benefit from either a single or double garage, and some include a car port; every plot has additional driveway parking. Gardens are generous yet manageable—ideal for morning coffee on the patio, gentle gardening or simply enjoying the fresh Devon air.

Internally, these homes are designed for contemporary comfort: chic kitchens feature built-in appliances, and bathrooms are fitted with stylish sanitary ware and tiling. Light oak-veneer internal doors, gas-fired central heating and uPVC double glazing create warmth and low maintenance. Energy efficiency has been prioritised to keep running costs low, and every property is backed by a 10-year NHBC warranty for peace of mind. Baker Estates’ Moving Made Easy suite includes home exchange and assisted move schemes, lifetime mortgage options for over-55s, and attractive packages for armed forces and key workers, with introductions to independent financial advisers available.

As well as the local facilities, there is plenty to expore further afield. Barnstaple, North Devon’s largest town, is only about seven miles away. It grew at the lowest crossing of the River Taw and today offers the region’s main shopping centre, markets and rail station. To the north, the old fishing village of Appledore lies at the mouth of the River Torridge just three miles from Bideford; it has a rich maritime heritage and is about six miles west of Barnstaple. Across the estuary, the quaint village of Instow sits where the rivers Taw and Torridge meet; it boasts a sandy beach, sand dunes with rare orchids and is served by the Tarka Trail and South West Coast Path. For beach lovers, Westward Ho! offers two miles of Blue Flag sand backed by a unique pebble ridge and Northam Burrows Country Park, while the nearby surfing beaches at Saunton, Croyde, Putsborough and Woolacombe form part of the North Devon World Surfing Reserve, a 30 km stretch of coastline renowned for its consistent, worldclass waves. The South West Coast Path itself runs for 630 miles along the peninsula; from Exmoor to Cornwall it provides spectacular scenery and nourishment for mind, body and soul. Exmoor National Park and the wild open moorland beyond offer further walking, cycling and wildlife-watching opportunities.

To celebrate the launch of Chapel Green there will be a VIP event at The Royal Hotel, Bideford on Thursday 9 April between 4 pm and 7 pm.
