A thread of nostalgia runs through the décor of this deceptively spacious apartment, housed in a listed building right in the heart of Taunton. The perfect spot for a couple or two friends looking to stay in a property with stacks of character, quality artwork and vintage collections add charm throughout. On the first floor, you’ll find a light-filled dual aspect kitchen and dining space with a handy breakfast bar for rustling up a bite to eat. Then climb the stairs to discover a twenty-seven-foot master bedroom with a lounge, separate dressing area, and a spacious bathroom. Whilst back downstairs, a suntrap patio is waiting to be enjoyed with your morning coffee. Perfectly placed to explore Taunton on foot, you’ll find bustling shops, cafes, and restaurants all close by. Visiting the nearby Stoke Wood Alpacas and Wellhayes Vineyard is an absolute must, we hear. Or jump in your car and you'll be on the M5 in five minutes flat. It's your corridor to Devon and Cornwall for an impromptu beach day when the sun shines.

And who can blame them? Rat race relocators are abandoning their crowded commutes, searching for a bucolic idyll. But one where you can still get a decent flat white – that's an absolute must.
