This first-floor one-bedroom apartment in Mount Street sits within Ellisfields Court, a purpose-built retirement development completed in 2014. Designed for independent over-70s living, the block offers an estate manager, on-site staff, a homeowners’ lounge, restaurant with table-service lunches, laundry, scooter store and well-kept communal gardens that back onto Vivary Park and Taunton Deane cricket ground.
The flat provides a double bedroom, sitting room, kitchen, shower room and a private balcony with views over landscaped grounds. At about 611 sq ft the accommodation is comfortable and low-maintenance, with good natural light from large windows and practical modern finishes from the original build.
Practical considerations: the property is leasehold and intended for retirement occupancy (over 70s). Council tax is above average for the area and the wider neighbourhood records higher-than-average crime—both important when assessing suitability. There is on-site parking and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity, and the town centre, rail links and M5 are within easy reach.
This apartment suits someone seeking a sociable, supported retirement setting close to town amenities and green space. It represents a low-upkeep lifestyle with communal conveniences and opportunities to join activities, while also requiring potential buyers to factor leasehold terms, service arrangements and local crime statistics into their decision.
