Set within the landscaped grounds of Heatherton Park, this ground-floor one-bedroom apartment offers bright, spacious rooms and a private entrance into a Grade II listed country house. High ceilings and large windows add character while the layout includes a living room, kitchen/breakfast room, utility, study/store and a double bedroom — practical space for a single occupant or couple.
Practical benefits include allocated and visitor parking, communal gardens, a Share of Freehold and no flooding risk. The lease started in 1994 (125 years) so around 94 years remain; current management charges run at £1,555.68 pa, next review April 2026. Council tax is band A which keeps running costs low.
As a listed property, any alterations will be restricted and may require listed-building consent — this can limit major refurbishment but preserves the period features. Broadband speeds are very slow in the area and mobile coverage is only average, so streaming or home-working may be challenging without a specialist solution. There is also a noted potential for damp in the large living room area; buyers should factor in a survey and possible remedial work.
This property will suit someone seeking period character and a quiet village setting — ideal for downsizers or those wanting a characterful starter home close to Taunton. It offers a ready-to-live-in option with scope to improve within the constraints of listed status.
