High Street, Fareham, Hampshire, PO16

GUIDE PRICE £600,000 - £635,000. This beautifully preserved Grade II Listed home is set among Fareham’s cherished conservation area. Immaculately presented throughout, it offers warm, welcoming interiors rich in period features, alongside spacious, well-appointed accommodation.


This rare property has been cherished by its current owners for over two decades, during which time they were honoured with a Restoration Award by The Fareham Society in recognition of their respectful restoration of this extraordinary home. From the moment you step inside, this unique residence radiates character and period charm, thoughtfully preserved across its four bedrooms and three reception rooms. The Sitting Room is generously proportioned and gracefully appointed, centred around a striking brick inglenook fireplace complete with bread oven. The adjacent dining room showcases expertly restored wide-plank flooring and a delightful bay window with built-in bench seating, complemented by a handsome brick fireplace with marble surround. The farmhouse-style kitchen is fitted with bespoke cabinetry and a central island. A cream gas Aga, additional appliances and a traditional terracotta quarry-tiled floor complete this inviting space. A further reception room, once the old parlour and now used as a study and music room, opens onto the charming garden via French doors. The ground floor also benefits from a cloakroom, while a spacious utility room is housed in the original basement. Upstairs is equally impressive, offering three generously sized double bedrooms, each with its own distinctive cast iron fireplace and a fourth bedroom, all arranged across two levels. Two tastefully appointed bathrooms complete the accommodation, one featuring a luxurious roll-top bath and a separate shower. There is also a wall painting which is dated as 1620 in one of the bedrooms.

The rear garden, has an initial courtyard garden which is partly enclosed by walls, with gravel, brick and flint paths leading to various seating areas. There is an old brick summerhouse, two former outdoor privies now used as potting sheds, and a historic brick outbuilding currently used by my client as a workshop. At the back of the courtyard, there is a lawn area and a gate that leads to the parking spaces.
