Chain-free, low-maintenance two-bed close to Taunton amenities.
Prestigious over-55s development with on-site house manager
This well-presented two double-bedroom cottage sits within Gatchell Oaks, a prestigious over-55s development in the favoured village of Trull to the south of Taunton. The house is light and spacious with a sitting room, fitted kitchen/breakfast room, rear hall to an enclosed low-maintenance garden and allocated parking. The sale is chain-free for a straightforward move.
Residents benefit from communal landscaped grounds and indoor facilities including meeting rooms, a kitchen, treatment room and an on-site house manager, creating a supportive, sociable environment. The property is modern in build (early 2000s), double glazed and heated by a mains-gas boiler with radiators.
Important practical points: this is a leasehold retirement property with a long lease remaining (circa 110 years). Annual service charge is £3,977.31 and ground rent £200 pa; council tax is band E (above average). Accommodation includes a single shower room only.
Overall this cottage will suit an over-55 buyer seeking low-maintenance, community-focused living near Taunton’s amenities. It offers comfortable, ready-to-live-in accommodation but carries typical communal costs and leasehold obligations that should be reviewed beforehand.
