About
Damers Lodge is a development of just nine apartments, enjoying a fantastic location a short distance from Dorchester town centre and Dorset County Hospital, while also benefiting from the convenience of allocated off road parking.
This first-floor apartment is well arranged, offering a practical layout with a clean, contemporary finish, well suited to a range of buyers.
A central entrance hall provides a natural point of arrival, creating a sense of space and flow while giving access to all principal rooms.
There is also useful space for storage, helping to keep the living areas uncluttered.
The proportions are well balanced, ensuring each area feels comfortable, functional and easy to live in, with a layout that works equally well for day to day living.
The heart of the apartment is the open plan KITCHEN/DINING and SITTING ROOM, a bright and sociable space extending to over twenty-one feet in length.
Designed with modern living in mind, this room provides clearly defined areas for cooking, dining and relaxing, while retaining an open, connected feel.
The KITCHEN is finished to an impressive standard, with wall units incorporating concealed lighting and floor mounted units set beneath a sleek quartz worktop, providing both style and durability.
Quality integrated appliances include a fridge freezer, Neff ™ induction hob and washer dryer, offering both convenience and a streamlined finish.
There is ample space for a dining table as well as comfortable seating, making this a versatile and welcoming room suited to both quiet evenings and entertaining guests.
There are two bedrooms, both well-proportioned and fully carpeted, each offering ample space for a double bed alongside additional furniture such as wardrobes or bedside tables.
The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM benefits from a neatly appointed ENSUITE shower room, fitted with a contemporary shower cubicle, a wall mounted wash hand basin, heated towel rail and a W.C.
The SECOND BEDROOM is equally flexible, lending itself well to use as a guest room, home office or additional reception space, depending on individual needs.

Throughout, the apartment is well presented, with a simple, cohesive finish that enhances the overall sense of light and space.
Solid oak internal fire doors are fitted throughout, adding a practical and considered detail, and completing a home that feels balanced, functional and ready to move into.
Outside To the front of Damers Lodge, a thoughtfully landscaped approach with areas of soft planting creates an attractive first impression, with a pathway leading to the main entrance.
The entrance itself has been carefully designed to offer a bright and welcoming arrival, enhanced by generous glazing and a lantern roof light above that draws natural light through the space.
To the rear, a particularly valuable feature for this central location is the provision of allocated parking.
Each apartment benefits from its own designated space, offering both convenience and reassurance for residents.
In addition, there is a visitor parking space, ensuring practical day to day use for both homeowners and guests.
Altogether, the external areas have been designed with both ease and functionality in mind, complementing the overall appeal of this well planned development.
