Medium flood risk and higher local crime levels
Available with no onward chain, this two-bedroom ground-floor apartment sits in a quiet corner of Northfield Court, moments from French Weir and Taunton town centre. The flat benefits from a rare private garage, allocated drive parking and a small front garden area — useful extras in this development. The open-plan living/dining/kitchen is bright and practical, with gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of C.
This property suits first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance starter home or investors looking for a city-centre let with good broadband and mobile signal. The lease has about 107 years remaining, with a modest ground rent (£125) and below-average service charge (£684), keeping running costs predictable. The compact 517 sq ft layout is efficient but best for buyers comfortable with modest internal space.
Be candid about the local downsides: recorded local crime levels are high and the site is in a medium flood-risk area, which should be considered for insurance and long-term planning. Externally the building is modern (constructed 2007–2011) and generally maintained, but the limited garden space and overall footprint restrict appeal for buyers needing larger outdoor areas or family-sized accommodation.
Overall this is a practical, low-hassle purchase with strong location benefits — garage, parking and proximity to parkland and schools — balanced by space limitations and local risk factors. Viewing is recommended for buyers prioritising convenience and easy access to town amenities.
