The property was originally constructed in 1973 and was purchased in 2019 by the current owner. You enter through the communal entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor. Once inside, there is a hallway, built in storage and doors opening to principal rooms.
The living room is situated at the far end of the apartment and enjoys large windows to dual aspects, helping make the room feel bright and spacious. There is a door opening onto the west-facing balcony, which provides some private outside space. From here, there is a pleasant outlook over the gardens below.
The Owners Love - The current owners have loved how tucked away and secluded it feels once inside the flat. “It has been such a nice place to live, and we really will miss how peaceful it is here”. They particularly love “the sense of space with a good size living room and two good size bedrooms”, and “the ample storage space that the flat provides”. They will mostly miss “living within easy reach of amenities and transport links”. They have also found having a garage and basement to be “really useful space to keep things stored safely that you wouldn’t necessarily keep inside the home!”
The kitchen is well appointed and benefits from a variety of fitted wall and base units with work surfaces over and inset sink with drainer. There is a built-in electric cooker with four-ring hob and hood over. There is also space for a fridge/freezer and plumbing for a washing machine. There is a window to the west aspect looking out over the balcony.
The main bedroom is a good size double, measuring approximately 3.75m x 2.98m and has a built-in wardrobe. The second bedroom is again a good size, measuring approximately 3.49m x 2.90m. The shower room is fitted with a three-piece suite including WC, washbasin, and shower cubicle.
George Loves - “I was really impressed with how much space you get with this property for such a reasonable price! It is nicely decorated throughout and with its first-floor position and west facing aspect, it has a really nice feel. It is also great to have a private balcony with somewhere to sit outside on a summer’s afternoon.”
Outside, there is a residents parking area with ample space including visitors and communal grounds surrounding the building for all residents to enjoy. There is also a private basement below the building providing secure storage space. The apartment also comes with a single garage in a block with up and over door.
Taunton and Surrounding area
Fact: Taunton was the first town in the country to be permanently lit by electric street lighting in 1881
Taunton is the County Town of Somerset with the town name deriving from “Town on the River Tone” or “Tone Town” nestled between the Quantock and Blackdown Hills. Voted as the happiest place to live in the South West according to the Rightmove Happy at Home Index, with the index painting a picture of it as a place where people look after their homes and have time for their neighbours. Taunton’s bustling Town Centre offers many High Street shops, Bars and Restaurants, however if you are looking for something a little more boutique, we recommend you explore Bath Place and Taunton independent quarter along St James Street.
