Description

Situated just moments from the heart of the vibrant Brewery Square development, Ammonite enjoys excellent access to a wide range of amenities including restaurants, cafés, cinema and riverside walks. With both lift and stair access, this third-floor apartment combines everyday convenience with a bright position above the surrounding area.

From the front door, the welcoming ENTRANCE HALL immediately sets the tone. Polished walnut flooring runs from the hallway through to the SITTING/DINING ROOM, creating a sense of continuity and warmth. From here, doors lead to all the principal rooms. The hallway also benefits from a generous storage cupboard, cleverly designed to house the washing machine and providing a practical, discreet laundry space.

The SITTING/DINING ROOM forms a particularly comfortable living space, enjoying a bright outlook and offering generous proportions for both living and dining furniture. A particular highlight is the sunny south facing balcony, providing an ideal spot for a morning coffee or simply to enjoy the outlook.

Positioned just off the living space is the modern KITCHEN, fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and floor mounted units arranged in a U-shaped formation and finished in a high gloss laminate. Concealed lighting above the composite stone worktops enhances both practicality and style. Integrated appliances include an AEG™ double oven, ceramic hob with extractor over, dishwasher and fridge/freezer, creating a well-equipped space suited to both everyday cooking and entertaining.

Both bedrooms are comfortable king rooms, while split bedroom layout enhances privacy and flexibility for a range of living arrangements. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM SUITE is particularly impressive, providing a generously sized bedroom together with a walk-in DRESSING ROOM and built-in wardrobes offering excellent storage. The accompanying ENSUITE BATHROOM is beautifully finished with travertine tiling throughout and includes a bath with shower over and screen, together with a wash hand basin, mirror-fronted vanity storage and wall-mounted W.C.

The SECOND BEDROOM is also fitted with wardrobes, providing further useful storage and offering versatility as a bedroom, home office or hobbies room. Adjacent to this room is the SHOWER ROOM, fitted with a large walk-in shower cubicle with travertine tiling, together with a wash hand basin set within a vanity unit and a wall-mounted mirror-fronted cabinet.

Residents of Ammonite benefit from a number of additional features designed to enhance both convenience and peace of mind, including video entry system, a concierge service and 24-hour on-site security.

Overall, the apartment offers a well-balanced layout with generous room sizes, quality finishes and excellent natural light throughout. Combined with the convenience of lift access and the attractive south facing balcony, this property presents an appealing opportunity for those seeking a stylish and low maintenance home within easy reach of Dorchester town centre.

Agents Note: As reported in the press, there was a fire in Ammonite Building in August 2025, and an insurance claim is ongoing. Apartment 9 was not directly affected, and all residents have moved back into their properties with full fire and safety sign off being granted.

Outside
Outside, the apartment enjoys a sunny south facing balcony accessed via double glazed doors from the sitting room, creating a pleasant extension of the living space and an ideal setting for al fresco dining or a morning coffee. The property also benefits from one secure underground parking space situated beneath the development. Entry to the parking area is controlled via a key fob system, providing both security and ease of access. From the parking level, residents can conveniently reach the apartment via lift or stairs, allowing direct access into the building. EV charging points available outside the carpark.

Location
Ammonite enjoys a highly convenient setting within the popular Brewery Square development, where a vibrant collection of restaurants, cafés, boutique shops and a cinema are arranged around the central square and its distinctive fountains, which transform into an ice rink during the winter months. The development also benefits from a nearby health centre and is particularly well placed for Dorchester South railway station, offering mainline services to London Waterloo. From here, the historic county town of Dorchester lies within comfortable walking distance, providing a wide range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and a traditional weekly market. Altogether, Brewery Square offers a lively yet convenient setting for modern town living.

The DOMVS Approach to Selling Property

We always start with a clear strategy. We take time to understand your home, the local market and buyer behaviour, ensuring pricing and positioning are right from the outset. Every step in the process is meticulously considered, from presentation and marketing through to negotiation and completion.

We get that no two homes are the same, and neither is the way they should be launched. We tailor the approach to suit the property, whether that is a full market launch, an ‘offers over’ strategy or a discreet introduction through our Whisper List. Our role is to generate the right level of interest and convert that into a successful sale.

Once a sale is agreed, our dedicated sales progression team works proactively with all parties to resolve issues early and maintain momentum. This combination of preparation, negotiation and progression is what protects your sale and delivers results.

Our approach is shaped by three core values: integrity, empathy and determination. We give clear, honest advice, understand the personal nature of moving, and remain focused on securing the strongest outcome for our clients.

Our Marketing

Every property benefits from professional photography, carefully written descriptions and, where appropriate, enhanced visuals such as drone footage or virtual staging. This is supported by our in-house marketing team, who deliver targeted campaigns designed to reach an engaged and relevant audience. Our sellers benefit from:

• A fully optimised website attracting an average of 20,500 visitors each month

• Targeted email and digital campaigns to a database of over 20,000 engaged subscribers

• Social media activity generating over 60,000 monthly views and thousands of website visits

• SEO-led campaigns and tailored landing pages designed to connect specific buyers with specific properties
