Location:
Poundbury is a modern urban extension of Dorchester the County town of Dorset. It was based on the vision of HM King Charles as a sustainable, walkable community, designed in quadrants, each with its own distinct architecture and green spaces. The house is situated on the tree-lined Crown Square, with its gallery, cafe, salon and shops. Waitrose is a short stroll along with two GP surgeries, dental practices, and the highly rated Damers First School. From the Poundbury Great Field there are many footpaths and bridleways across the beautiful surrounding countryside. The Jurassic Coastline is a few miles to the south with some sandy beaches, and water sports along the coast of Weymouth and Lulworth Cove.
