As you begin your selection of senior living communities, your first choice, no doubt, will be geographic. It could be the weather, a dream location or closeness to a special relative. What you will discover is that Charlotte is a vibrant city with a variety of cultural and entertainment venues. Our weather is mild, the city is clean, and our people, friendly and inviting. You’ll also find The Dorchester situated as a welcome respite with easy access to all the city’s best.  

The Dorchester is conveniently located on the back door entrance to Carolina Place Mall with easy access to Interstate 485, the city’s beltway. Key retailers from Ann Taylor, Barnes & Noble, and Starbucks, to Macy’s and Sears are a stone’s throw. There are restaurants like Harper’s, Chili’s, Waldhorn, Tony Romas, and Bonefish Grill, Outback, Olive Garden and IHOP.

If you enjoy shopping, begin at Furniture Row, move on to Carolina Place Mall, enjoy the unique fare at Black Lion and end up at the quaint antique and gift stores of historic downtown Pineville. Doctors, Dentists, Hospitals, and even spas are within a mile of your door step.

At The Dorchester you set the pace and follow your own interests.  Catch a movie in our Great Room or enjoy a broadway show downtown at the Blumenthal Performing Arts Center. You’re a short hop from the interstate, the Panthers, Charlotte Checkers hockey, Bobcat basketball, and Knights baseball. With so many events, activities and attractions, your biggest decision at The Dorchester will be not what to do, but how possibly to do it all. Whatever you need or want is just a few skips away from the Dorchester.
