Culliford Court offers a warm and welcoming environment with just 46 self-contained one and two-bedroom retirement apartments designed for those aged 55 and over.

Built by McCarthy & Stone in 2006/7, Culliford Court prioritizes peace of mind, comfort, and independence. The development is set within expansive communal gardens and conveniently located close to the town's various amenities.

Entry to this friendly community is through an entry phone system, leading to the residents' lounge—a popular, relaxed meeting place with its own kitchen. It's the perfect spot for entertaining family and friends or joining in on organized events. The community life here is vibrant and inclusive, with opportunities to participate as much or as little as you wish.

Tucked away at the back of the building, this apartment boasts views of the charming, well-kept garden and has a modern, fresh feel throughout. The front door opens into an inviting entrance hall that leads to a sitting room with a dining area. A large window frames the garden view, filling the room with natural light. This cosy reception room features an electric fireplace and easily accommodates a dining table and chairs for entertaining.

Twin glazed doors open to the kitchen, where abundant natural light pours in through a garden-view window. The kitchen is equipped with both wall-mounted and floor-based cupboards, offering ample storage and food preparation space. The sink is conveniently placed under the window, and AEG™ integrated appliances include an electric hob with a fume hood and an electric oven. There is also space for a fridge and additional appliance space with plumbing.

The bedroom overlooks the communal gardens and features a double-glazed window, built-in wardrobes with plenty of storage and hanging space, an electric storage heater, a telephone point, a television aerial socket, an emergency pull cord, and a door to the entrance hall. Completing the well-presented accommodation is a shower room with a white suite, including a W.C. with a concealed cistern, a vanity unit with a wash hand basin, and a large shower cubicle with a screen.

Outside
In addition to the Residents Lounge, there is the laundry room with washing machines and tumble dryers for residents use. Moreover, subject to a reservation - a guest room is available for visiting friends or family who might wish to stay over. The well-established, landscaped gardens and seating areas within are there to be enjoyed by residents, their families and friends. Well-kept lawns are surrounded by stocked borders, mature trees and shrubs.

Location
One of the many benefits of living here is the location. Culliford Court is located on a tree lined road in the county town of Dorchester and has the added advantage of being nestled within generous communal gardens.

Situation - The property is situated in a favoured residential area close to the town centre. Dorchester has an excellent range of shops, restaurants, leisure facilities and services.

The new Brewery Square development offers a fantastic mix of restaurants, shops and a cinema.

The Dorset County Hospital is nearby along with Dorchester South and Dorchester West stations in the town provide mainline rail services to London Waterloo and Bristol Temple Meads respectively.

Within walking distance of the property is the town’s major supermarket and Retail Park. There is nearby access to walks over the open countryside and within easy access of South Walks.
