Easing the pain of buying a new home

Bellway Housing Trust is easing the pain of paying for a new home. At its stylish new-build development, Riverside Fields in Braunton there is a 50:50 deal on two bedroom apartments and just a couple of houses and the scheme has just widened its catchment area, meaning that anyone eligible can apply from the whole of Barnstaple, Woolacombe and Croyde.

With more and more first time buyers priced out of the housing market, and the demand for homes in the UK reaching an all time high, Bellway Housing Trust is at the forefront, providing quality affordable homes without the need for social housing grants.

Bellway Housing Trust is a subsidiary of Bellway plc, one of the country’s top four house-builders, and provides new homes for affordable home ownership in conjunction with Bellway Homes "The apartments available through the Trust are built in exactly the same way and to the same specification as those which have been sold on the conventional open market on the sites where we operate, so that there is total integration.”

The scheme available at Riverside enables first time buyers to purchase a property on a shared ownership basis for 50 per cent of the market value price.

Riverside Fields located off Vellator Way, comprises 85 new homes in the seaside village of Braunton, North Devon. Riverside Fields will offer two bedroom apartments priced (at full market value) from £149,950 to £155,950; a one-bedroom apartment for just £129,950; and houses from £209,950. But, warns the housebuilder, only a handful of homes remain so anyone interested should hurry to take advantage of this 50 per cent pricing deal.

Located on the A361, 5 miles north east of Barnstaple, Braunton is a large village in North West Devon. Braunton is the ideal location for quiet seaside retreat. Situated just 2 miles from the beach, the village has local shops, pubs and a new supermarket within walking distance of the development. More recently the village has become a hub for surfing as it sits at the gateway to North Devon’s golden coast and the famous surf beaches of Saunton, Croyde and Woolacombe and for coastal walks.
