A well-presented ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in a popular over-60s riverside development, convenient for Taunton town centre and its amenities. The living room opens onto a balcony with riverside outlooks across Goodland Gardens and Castle Green, while a fitted kitchen and double bedroom with fitted wardrobe complete the practical layout. Constructed in 2019, the apartment benefits from modern build standards and communal EV charging points.
Residents have access to generous communal facilities including an owners’ lounge and coffee bar, landscaped gardens, guest suite availability, a Lodge Manager five days a week and a 24-hour Careline for added peace of mind. Owners’ private car park (unallocated) and lift access to all floors add everyday convenience; buggy store charging points are provided.
Important practical facts are stated plainly: the property is leasehold (995 years remaining), with an annual service charge of £2,391.36 and ground rent of £575 (both reviewed Nov 2025). The development enforces age restrictions (at least one owner 60+, second owner 55+), prohibits subletting and short-term lets, and has rules on pets subject to manager approval. There is a medium flood risk for the area and recorded higher crime levels nearby, which buyers should consider alongside the 24-hour Careline and communal security.
No onward chain and fast transport links to London Paddington and the M5 make this an attractive option for downsizers seeking an active community lifestyle near the town centre. Buyers should budget for the service charges and ground rent and note the prohibition on renting out the apartment.
