Description
Fullands House, a listed late-Georgian building, is the centrepiece of this beautiful estate, surrounded by a multitude of fine trees. It has changed uses many times over the years, at different points housing local military commanders, friars, lunatics and then, for much of its later life, schoolboys, amongst whom was General Gordon of Khartoum. Now, in happily less dramatic times, it is host to some delightful sunny apartments. The estate also offers a Victorian Gothic cottage and other two- and three-bedroom properties, the architecture complementing the main house and surrounded by lawns, beautifully planted beds and woodland. There are shops close by and a local butcher and fishmonger deliver to the estate, and there is also a weekly farmers’ market. A regular bus service goes into the centre of Taunton, the county town of Somerset, with its broad range of shops, restaurants and cultural venues, and a history stretching back to Saxon times. It is home to Somerset Cricket Club and a well-known racecourse and is surrounded by beautiful countryside, on the edge of Exmoor. The Quantock Hill Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty also lies just a few miles to the north.
Cognatum Estates maintains, repairs and insures all the buildings, arranges the window cleaning and refuse collection and tends to the gardens and grounds thereby freeing owners and residents from these responsibilities. There is a personal alarm system in each property and resident estate managers are on hand to provide support and help when needed, making this an ideal 'Lock Up & Leave' property.
There are allotments for residents' use, a laundry facility and a guest suite, which provides comfortable accommodation for family and friends.
The cost of providing these services is shared equally between all properties. There are no restrictions on owning a property except that one resident must be over 55 years of age.
150 year lease (from 1989). No ground rent.
