Set on the ground floor of a well-kept Poundbury development, this two-bedroom apartment offers a practical, low-maintenance home in a highly walkable part of Dorchester. The accommodation is neatly presented throughout, with two double bedrooms (both with built-in wardrobes), a reception room with dual-aspect light, and a fitted kitchen/diner with integrated appliances. At about 713 sq ft the layout is compact but comfortable for everyday living.
Poundbury’s mix of shops, cafes, green spaces and local services sits within easy walking distance, making this an appealing choice for first-time buyers wanting convenience and community. The property includes an allocated parking space and access to a communal courtyard garden, and benefits from mains gas central heating and double glazing. EPC is rated C.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat: approximately 227 years remain on the lease. Annual service charges are a material ongoing cost (service charge £1,719.65; annual Manco charge £225, discounted to £200 for early payment). The communal garden is small and outdoor space is shared rather than private. Room sizes are modest rather than generous, so the home best suits buyers prioritising location and low-maintenance living over extensive internal space.
Overall this apartment presents a sensible entry point to Poundbury for a first-time buyer seeking a well-positioned, easy-to-run home with long lease security and steady local demand. Investors will also find the location and layout straightforward to rent, though they should budget for the stated service and management charges.
