About
This two bedroom, first floor apartment with off road parking has a generous balcony with pretty views and is located in the popular Blackbrook area of Taunton.
That wonderful smell of fresh paint fills the air as soon as you step inside, because this home has been freshly decorated throughout and also has the benefit of brand new carpets and a brand new cooker.
And as for the storage…. there’s an abundance!
Double cupboards and a walk-in coat cupboard in the entrance hall, a double wardrobe in the smaller bedroom, two walk-in cupboards in the kitchen, an airing cupboard in the bathroom and outside each apartment has access to a storage unit big enough for bikes / Christmas trees etc..
The balcony enjoys a pleasant outlook over mature trees and a green open space, with the cheerful sounds of children playing in the nearby primary school playground at playtime.
Taunton town centre and the M5 motorway are both just a short drive(or bus journey), away, while a small parade of local shops and a medical centre are conveniently located nearby, making everyday essentials easily accessible.
