A Stocks and Shares ISA is one of the most effective ways to build long‑term, tax‑efficient income. And FTSE homebuilder Taylor Wimpey (LSE: TW) remains a standout candidate, in my view.
Its combination of high yields, strong cash generation and disciplined capital returns gives investors a rare blend of reliability and potential share price gains. That makes it a compelling option to consider for income hunters planning for the next tax year.
So what sort of returns are we looking at over time?

What’s the potential annual dividend income?
£20,000 (the same holding as I have) in Taylor Wimpey shares could make £32,035 in dividends after 10 years and £332,226 after 30 years.
By that time — the end of a standard investment cycle for long-term investors — the holding’s value would be £352,226, including the initial £20,000.
And this would generate a yearly income of £33,814!
These figures are based on the analyst-forecast 9.6% dividend yield by 2028 as an average, although these returns can vary over time.
They also factor in the payouts being reinvested into the stock to capture the full turbocharging effect of dividend compounding.
How much in potential share price gains?
When I was an investment‑bank trader, I found that discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis was the most reliable way to determine potential share‑price gains over time.
It values the underlying business by estimating its future cash generation and discounts it back to today. When those forecasts are less clear, investors demand higher returns, which increases the discount applied.
Depending on the assumptions used, analysts’ DCF valuations may vary. But based on my own framework — including an 8.9% discount rate — Taylor Wimpey looks 64% undervalued at its current level of 76p.
That suggests a ‘fair value’ of £2.11 — more than double the current price. As asset prices (including shares) tend to trade to their fair value over time, this could be a superb potential buying opportunity if those DCF assumptions prove accurate.
Indeed, a £20,000 holding at today’s price would be worth £55,527, if that fair value were realised.
Does this look realistic based on the business?
Ultimately, gains in any firm’s dividends and share price are driven by sustained increases in profits.
A risk to these for Taylor Wimpey is any prolonged rise in interest rates. That could deter people from taking on new mortgages to move house. Another is a continued increase in the cost of living that could do the same.
That said, analysts forecast that the homebuilder’s profits will rise by an annual average of 21.6% over the medium term at least.
My investment view
The combination of powerful dividend compounding and a share price that looks materially below fair value gives Taylor Wimpey striking long‑term potential.
The income alone could become substantial over time, while any move towards that DCF valuation would add a significant capital boost on top.
And with profits forecast to grow strongly, the foundations for those returns look solid.
For savvy, long-term ISA investors, it is a highly appealing mix to consider, in my view. And I, for one, will certainly be buying more of the shares very soon. I also have my eye on other high-yielding undervalued stocks in other sectors.
