Abbotsham Park by Persimmon Homes · Abbotsham Park, Clovelly Road, Bideford, Devon EX39 3QU

Abbotsham Park is a new build homes development by Persimmon Homes, located on Clovelly Road in Abbotsham, Bideford, Devon (EX39 3QU). The site is scheduled to deliver approximately 200 new homes to the area. The development comprises a mix of one, two, three, and four-bedroom properties, including terraced and semi-detached house types.

As part of Persimmon’s commitment to the local community, 19% of the properties will be transferred to a housing association to help address the local housing shortage. The properties available cater to a range of needs, from one-bedroom plus study homes suitable for singles or couples to four-bedroom detached family houses. Each property is designed for modern living and features quality finishes and energy-saving measures. Beyond the residential units, the Abbotsham Park development features dedicated community amenities, including natural green spaces, sports and recreation grounds, a community orchard, and designated children's play areas. The developer is also placing emphasis on biodiversity, with the site including a new cycleway, hedgehog-friendly boundary fencing, extensive new hedgerows, and the installation of 100 bird and 100 bat boxes. The location, nestled between the North Devon National Landscape and the Hartland Devon Heritage Coast, offers residents easy access to coastal towns and beaches such as Westward Ho!, Instow, and Appledore. Bideford town centre is a short distance away, offering a historic maritime quay, the popular Pannier Market, and leisure amenities such as the Burton Art Gallery and Museum in Victoria Park. A traditional local pub, The Thatched Inn, is also situated nearby in the village of Abbotsham. For daily amenities and retail, the development is within walking distance of the Affinity Devon shopping outlet and Atlantic Park, which provide access to supermarkets and a selection of restaurants. Transport connectivity is strong via road; the A39 Atlantic Highway is close by, linking Bideford to Barnstaple and, via the A360, providing access to the M5 motorway network. The A386 connects cross-country, reaching the A30 at Okehampton. The closest main line rail access is from Barnstaple station, located approximately seven miles away, with services running to Exeter Central. Local public transport is served by Stagecoach bus routes 15, 15A, 21A, 85, and 319, with the Abbotsham Road stop being a one-minute walk from the development. The Line 319 bus offers a journey into Bideford's Old Town in approximately 5-6 minutes. Prospective buyers should note that while Persimmon Homes is a high-volume national developer, general industry commentary indicates varying build quality across different sites, and potential buyers are advised to conduct their own due diligence, including professional snagging and, if possible, speaking to existing residents. The developer is offering various schemes to assist buyers, including Deposit Boost (5% deposit contribution), Forces Help to Buy, and discounts for NHS and Key Workers. The sales office and showhome are currently open on-site at Clovelly Road. For plot-specific completion dates, full house specifications, and to confirm the final pricing structure, potential buyers should contact the developer directly.
