Low-maintenance over-60s maisonette near town centre, garden and visitor parking.
Large 636 sq ft one-bedroom maisonette, private entrance and first-floor layout
Quiet, low‑maintenance living close to Taunton town centre — this one‑bedroom maisonette sits within an over‑60s community and is offered with no onward chain. The layout is straightforward: private entrance, stairs to first floor, light lounge/diner, separate kitchen, double bedroom and shower room. A small garden and off‑street visitor parking add practical convenience.
Practical strengths include a generous overall size (approximately 636 sq ft), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, plus proximity to French Weir Park, riverside walks and local amenities. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which keep the property simple to run but may be less efficient than gas central heating; buyers should factor potential upgrade costs into plans.
Important lease information: the property is leasehold with 57 years remaining. Mortgage lenders frequently impose stricter criteria or may refuse lending on shorter leases, so prospective buyers should check finance options early. Ground rent is nominal (£1) but the short lease term is a material issue for most buyers.
This home will suit a purchaser wanting a quiet, easy‑care base near town — particularly someone able to buy outright or comfortable arranging specialist leasehold finance. Be aware the area records higher crime levels than average; viewings recommended so you can judge location and value in person.
