About Bridge House

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

Bridge House is a detached house in Hele, Taunton, Taunton (TA4 1AH). It has a recorded floor area of 265 m² (around 2852 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Held since June 2005 — that's 21 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 265 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

Today's modelled estimate of £739,000 sits 146.3% above the 2005 sale of £300,000. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2009.
