Set within the former St Joseph’s Convent, this ground-floor two-bedroom apartment pairs period character with recent decoration and practical convenience. High ceilings and large arched windows give the open-plan living space a bright, airy feel, while the master bedroom benefits from an ensuite shower room. Communal landscaped gardens and secure gated grounds provide pleasant outdoor space just minutes from Taunton town centre.
The property is offered share of freehold with an exceptionally long lease (978 years remaining), making it a straightforward long-term purchase. Allocated and visitor parking are included, and the flat has been recently refreshed so it is ready to move into with minimal immediate work required. Broadband speeds are average and mobile signal is excellent for staying connected.
Buyers should note the home’s Grade II listed status: any alterations will likely face additional consent processes and potential costs. The annual service charge is substantial (£3,491.11) and there is a separate grounds charge (£773), plus a relatively high ground rent figure listed; factor these into running-cost calculations. The wider area scores high for deprivation and local crime levels are very high, which may concern some purchasers despite the secure gated setting.
This apartment will suit a first-time buyer or couple seeking character, long lease security and proximity to town amenities at an affordable price. It also offers scope for those wanting a low-immediate-work home within a distinctive historic conversion, provided buyers are comfortable with listed-building constraints and ongoing communal charges.
