Apartment 29 at Casterbridge Court is a modern two-bedroom retirement home built in 2015 and designed for low-maintenance living. The bright open-plan living, dining and kitchen area opens onto a Juliette balcony, while the main bedroom benefits from a walk-in wardrobe and private en-suite. A separate shower room, useful storage cupboard and an efficient SAP rating (up to 89) add practical comfort.
Resident-focused features include a fixed service charge, an onsite House Manager during office hours and a guest suite for visiting family or friends. The development’s tranquil communal gardens and patio provide a peaceful outdoor space a short stroll from shops, cafés and Dorchester town centre (0.7 miles).
This is a leasehold retirement property with 995 years remaining, electrically powered room heaters and an average overall size of about 786 sq ft. The long lease and modern construction make it suitable for downsizers seeking a contemporary, low-upkeep home; note heating runs on electricity which can mean higher running costs compared with mains gas. Council tax information is not provided.
Practical local points: fast broadband is available, mobile signal is average and the area is described as generally affluent with average crime levels. The apartment suits someone who values on-site support, easy-access communal amenities and proximity to town services, but who is comfortable with electric heating and a managed service-charge arrangement.
