Light-filled, well-presented second-floor apartment close to Taunton town centre. The open-plan living/kitchen with French doors to a Juliet balcony gives a bright, modern feel and makes efficient use of the modest 521 sq ft footprint. With two double bedrooms and allocated off-street parking, the flat suits a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor seeking a central location and immediate occupancy (no onward chain).
Practical running costs are straightforward: leasehold with approximately 106 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £2,010 and a small ground rent (£121 pa). Council Tax band A keeps local bills low, and the property benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and fast mobile/broadband availability — useful for commuters or renters.
Buyers should note the modest overall size and that rooms are compact; the apartment will suit one- or two-person households better than families wanting lots of space or a private garden. The immediate neighbourhood is very deprived with a very high local crime level — factors that may affect long-term resale and rental demand and should be considered alongside the town-centre convenience.
Cosmetic updating may be desired in places, but the neutral, modern finishes mean any works are likely light rather than structural. For a purchaser seeking central convenience, allocated parking and a ready-to-move-in flat with a long lease and no chain, this is a practical, affordable option.
