Eldridge Street, Dorchester, Dorset DT1

Apartment 51 forms part of an architect-designed, highly distinctive contemporary apartment building, set within an architecturally striking circular development designed to maximise light, space and flow throughout. Offering over 2,100 sq ft of well-planned, light-filled accommodation arranged across a single level, the property is centred around an impressive open-plan living space with curved glazing and direct access to a generous terrace, ideally suited to modern living, all within a well-maintained development close to Dorchester town centre.

The principal living area combines the kitchen, dining and sitting spaces within one expansive room, defined by its curved wall and extensive glazing, which allows for excellent natural light and creates a strong visual connection to the outside. The sitting room has 180 degree full length electronically operated curtains creating an impressive cinematic effect when they are opened. The kitchen is fitted in a modern style and incorporates a range of integrated, high-specification appliances, including multiple builtin ovens and a coffee machine, set within sleek, contemporary cabinetry. A central island provides both preparation space and a natural focal point, while there is ample space for a dining table and comfortable seating area.

The bedroom accommodation is arranged around the central core of the apartment, providing a practical and well-balanced layout. The principal bedroom is a generous double bedroom and benefits from an en suite bathroom with twin sinks, a freestanding bath and a walk-in shower with a frameless glazed screen and rainfall shower head. The principal bedroom also has electronically operated curtains. Two further bedrooms are offered, one with en suite facilities and generous built-in storage, while the other enjoys direct access to the terrace and is served by a separate bathroom. A central internal hub incorporates a lift, providing a practical feature within the layout. The apartment further benefits from air conditioning throughout the living space and bedrooms.

The apartment benefits from a substantial wraparound terrace, which mirrors the curved design of the building and provides an excellent space for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation. The terrace offers a pleasant outlook and enhances the sense of space, extending the living accommodation externally. The property forms part of a well maintained development, with neat communal areas creating an attractive setting. Beneath the Cooperage are two designated storage rooms that lie adjacent to the apartment’s two underground parking spaces.

The Cooperage is perfectly positioned within the vibrant heart of Brewery Square, Dorchester’s premier residential and lifestyle destination. This award-winning development offers an array of high-quality amenities right on the doorstep, including an Odeon cinema, a fitness centre, a medical centre, and a diverse selection of popular restaurants and upscale boutiques centered around the striking fountain square. Beyond the immediate development, the historic county town of Dorchester provides traditional high street shopping, the scenic Borough Gardens, and a wealth of cultural landmarks celebrating the town’s Roman heritage and literary connections to Thomas Hardy. Transport links are exceptional; Dorchester South station is situated just a short stroll away, offering direct and frequent services to London Waterloo and Weymouth, while Dorchester West provides links to Bristol and the West Country. For those travelling by car, the A35 and A37 ensure easy access to the nearby seaside town of Weymouth, the artisan market town of Bridport, and the world-renowned Jurassic Coast, making this an ideal hub for enjoying the very best of Dorset.
