Easy low-maintenance living with communal gardens and parking.
Ground-floor retirement apartment with two bedrooms
A well-presented ground-floor retirement apartment in a purpose-built over-55s development on Taunton’s south side. The 2-bedroom layout (approx. 674 sq ft) offers a bright living room, fitted kitchen, shower room and a useful basement storage room. Ground-floor access and maintained communal gardens make the apartment easy to live in and enjoy outdoors without extensive upkeep.
This is a shared-ownership sale (50% share). Monthly housing costs include a rent of £241.27 (50% share), a service charge of £339.46 and an annual ground rent of £200. The advertised annual service charge is £4,073.52 (above average) — factor this into ongoing affordability. The lease is long (around 106–108 years remaining) and the sale is offered chain-free.
Practical positives include allocated and visitor parking, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband potential, plus low local crime and a well cared-for communal environment. Restrictions include a no-Airbnb policy and pet permissions assessed on a case-by-case basis. This property suits a downsizer seeking low-maintenance living in a popular village-edge location close to local amenities.
