You can now purchase apartments at Kingfisher Court through McCarthy Stone Shared Ownership in partnership with Homes England. There are many advantages to purchasing an apartment in this way. For example, if you purchase a 75% share of the property, there will be no rent to pay on the rest, meaning you can retain home ownership for less. Purchasing a 50% share would require an affordable monthly rent. Available to move in to at this stunning development is apartment 48, which is featured in this listing and comes with an upgraded curtain, blind and a light package.
Example shares for plot 44
50% price £117.500 with £269.27 rent

These properties are built specifically with over-70s in mind. They provide independent living while also offering tailored help and support.

In the evenings, you'll find plenty of opportunities to enjoy some local theatre, arts and culture. The Brewhouse Theatre & Arts Centre stages regular and varied performances throughout the year, while Tacchi-Morris Arts Centre hosts theatre, dance and comedy shows, as well as a range of performances from schools and colleges. If you're keen to take up a new hobby in your golden years, then you'll also find community classes here and at the Creative Innovation Centre in the town centre.
Sports fans are well catered for as well. Taunton is home to Somerset County Cricket Club and occasionally hosts the England men's and women's national teams. The town also contains a rugby union club, a rugby league club and a football club. Elsewhere, Taunton Racecourse is only two miles away from the centre of Taunton.
Transport links surrounding our retirement homes in Taunton are strong, which makes the development perfectly situated for when family and friends come to visit. Taunton Railway Station is located on several mainlines, providing national services to locations such as Manchester Piccadilly, Birmingham New Street and London Paddington. Locally, you'll also find regular buses to Minehead, Bridgwater and Weston-super-Mare.
