Property Development in Dorset
Dorset combines the Jurassic Coast's tourism appeal with Bournemouth's vibrant urban economy. Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole (BCP) unitary authority is one of the South Coast's most active development markets, with strong student demand from two universities and a growing digital sector. Rural Dorset offers lifestyle conversions and agricultural PD opportunities, while the coast commands premium values for well-located schemes.
