A substantial 17th/19th-century character house occupying a prominent High Street position in Fareham. The property extends over three floors with generous room sizes and many original features — exposed timber framing, sash windows, exposed floorboards and a first-floor balcony — making it a rare find for someone seeking period charm with strong scope for repurposing.
The layout includes three reception rooms, two kitchens, two cellars, three bedrooms and a single family bathroom. Practical positives include mains gas heating with a boiler and radiators, freehold tenure, no forward chain and direct High Street access that supports both residential use and potential commercial or mixed-use opportunities (subject to consents).
Important considerations: the house has an EPC rating of D, solid brick construction likely with no cavity insulation, and visible dated/decorative fittings — it will need modernisation and ongoing maintenance. The courtyard garden is small and the plot is compact. There is only one family bathroom for three bedrooms, and some rooms have low ceilings; the property is best suited to buyers prepared to carry out refurbishment.
Location benefits include excellent mobile signal, average broadband, nearby outstanding and good schools, and a wide range of town-centre amenities. This property will appeal most to investors or buyers seeking a character renovation with potential for added value and flexible use.
