About this home

1 TAW WHARF - 2 BEDROOM TOWNHOUSE WITH DOUBLE TANDEM GARAGE

A fabulous end-terraced home with accommodation arranged over three floors. On the ground floor there is the entrance hall as well as the large double length tandem garage. The garage interconnects directly into the main entrance hall. On the first floor, the landing leads into a well-equipped kitchen diner and a separate and cosy lounge with access onto a balcony. There is a handy toilet on this floor as well. On the top floor there are the two double bedrooms, with the master bedroom having a Juliet balcony as well as the family bathroom. Outside, there is a gated front courtyard area, ideal for additional parking or amenity space.

The Townhouses at Taw Wharf

The final three townhouses at Taw Wharf offer generous, flexible living in a riverside setting close to the heart of Barnstaple. Choose from a spacious two bedroom home or two three bedroom homes, each with a private garden, balcony and substantial tandem garage with room for two cars. Contemporary interiors and solar PV panels make these appealing homes for buyers who want space to grow, less upkeep and the freedom to walk into town or step out onto the Tarka Trail. These homes are perfect for first time buyers and as well as first time movers, and great for those wanting easier, lower maintenance living.

The Final Chapter at Taw Wharf

After the success of the previous phases, Taw Wharf has reached its final chapter. Phase 5 represents the last opportunity to purchase a brand new home within this landmark riverside development, with just 13 properties forming the concluding release: three townhouses and ten purpose-built apartments. Once these homes are sold, the development is complete.

Taw Wharf has always been about much more than simply buying a new home. It is about enjoying a different way of life: somewhere you can leave the car at home, walk into town, stroll or cycle beside the river, have shops and everyday essentials virtually on your doorstep, and return to a modern, comfortable and energy-efficient home designed to make life easier.

A Home That Gives You More Time to Enjoy Life

For many buyers, particularly those considering downsizing, the attraction of a new home is the freedom that comes with having less to worry about. No ageing roof to replace, no decades-old heating system and no large garden demanding every free weekend. Instead, Phase 5 offers modern, purpose-built homes designed around contemporary living, with excellent insulation and energy-efficiency qualities, modern heating, double glazing and the reassurance of a 10-year NHBC Buildmark Warranty. The apartment specification also includes underfloor heating, superfast fibre broadband and high-quality contemporary fixtures and fittings.

For someone moving from a larger family home, that can be genuinely liberating. You can retain the space, quality and comfort you want while reducing the maintenance responsibilities you do not. It also makes Taw Wharf an appealing home for those who enjoy travelling or simply want to spend more time enjoying North Devon than maintaining their property.

Quality You Can See and Feel

Built by award-winning local developer Pearce Homes, Phase 5 continues the high standard established throughout Taw Wharf. Contemporary kitchens feature Bosch integrated appliances, induction hobs, Franke sinks and Hansgrohe fittings, while bathrooms combine Roca sanitaryware, Hansgrohe brassware and stylish contemporary finishes. Specifications vary by property type, with the larger apartments including en suites and built-in wardrobes.

The result is a home that feels considered rather than simply new: stylish enough to feel special, yet practical enough for everyday life.

Everything Close at Hand

Taw Wharf sits beside the River Taw in the heart of Barnstaple, combining the convenience of town living with an open waterside setting. Anchorwood Retail Park is immediately alongside, with ASDA and a gym close at hand, making everything from the weekly shop to a workout exceptionally convenient.

Cross the river and Barnstaple town centre is within an easy walk, putting its shops, cafés, restaurants, Pannier Market and other amenities close at hand. For journeys further afield, there is convenient access towards the A361 North Devon Link Road and onwards towards Tiverton and the M5.

Step Outside and Onto the Tarka Trail

The riverside setting gives immediate access to the Tarka Trail, opening up miles of walking and cycling through the North Devon landscape. Everyday exercise need not involve getting into the car: step outside, head along the river and walk, run or cycle for as little or as long as you choose.

For someone downsizing, that combination is particularly compelling: town-centre convenience, the river and countryside, and less property maintenance when you get home. For younger buyers and professionals, it offers a contemporary base from which work, shopping, leisure, socialising and the outdoors can all fit naturally into everyday life.

We Can Help Make the Move Easier Too

Buying your next home should be exciting, and our team can help with far more than simply finding the property.

Whether you are buying your first home, relocating to North Devon, looking for more convenient modern living or ready to exchange a larger property for somewhere that gives you more freedom, Phase 5 at Taw Wharf deserves to be seen. Thirteen homes. One final phase. And when they are gone, Taw Wharf is complete.
