Palace Court is an exclusive and well-maintained purpose-built apartment block of just 14 properties, situated in the conservation area of Dorchester, just a stone's throw from the High Street. The property is bright, spacious, immaculately presented, and benefits from an allocated off-street parking space and communal gardens.

A secure communal entrance door gives access to the communal stairwell, rising to the first floor and front door of the property. There is an entrance porch leading into the hallway leading to all rooms. Both bedrooms are spacious doubles with front aspect windows and built-in wardrobes, with the master bedroom featuring a box-bay window. The Living Room also has a front aspect and a glazed door to the kitchen, which has a rear aspect, allowing plenty of natural light, no matter the time of day. The modern fitted kitchen is recently installed and has a range of base and wall-mounted cabinets, an inset stainless sink and drainer, and under-counter space for a washing machine and a dishwasher. There is a useful pantry cupboard and plenty of space for a dining table. The bathroom is well appointed and comprises a pedestal basin, low-level WC, and a bath with shower over, and a rear aspect window with obscured glass.

Dorchester is the County town of Dorset, steeped in history and offering fantastic amenities and a weekly market. Palace Court was built in 1983, an award-winning development located in the heart of town, just a short walk from the pedestrianised shopping area of South Street and Waitrose Supermarket. Within a mile radius are several well-regarded primary and secondary schools, most notably the Thomas Hardye School which is rated Ofsted Outstanding. Sunninghill Prep is also nearby in the private sector. Transport links are plentiful with main roads in all directions, local bus routes, and mainline railway stations to both London Waterloo and Bristol Temple Meads. Shopping and recreational facilities are in abundance, including a thriving high street, trendy Brewery Square development, and two supermarkets. Dorchester is surrounded by rolling hills and open countryside, and the Jurassic Coastline is just a short drive to the South.
