Spacious apartment with communal facilities and park access for independent retirees.
Ground-floor one-bedroom, generous 958 sq ft internal space
A spacious one-bedroom ground-floor apartment in Ellisfields Court, designed specifically for independent retirement living. Built in 2014 by McCarthy & Stone, the flat offers a generous 958 sq ft layout with direct access to well-kept communal gardens and Vivary Park, plus excellent communal facilities including a homeowners’ lounge, restaurant, laundry and scooter store.
The apartment benefits from modern construction standards: triple glazing, electric underfloor heating and detached timber-frame build. It sits within easy walking distance of Taunton town centre and has fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical for staying connected and arranging services.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold retirement property for the over-70s. The lease has 113 years remaining, but the ongoing charges are significant: an annual service charge of £9,332, ground rent of £5,220 and above-average council tax. Also note the local crime rate is higher than average and the apartment’s hallway has a relatively low ceiling in places.
Ellisfields Court provides a sociable, managed environment with staff and an estate manager for day-to-day support. For someone seeking convenience, community activities and hassle-free living in central Taunton, this property offers strong lifestyle appeal — provided the higher running costs and local safety considerations are acceptable.
