Press Release

15 November 2023

More new affordable homes for Fareham

Fareham Housing is pleased to announce that works are due to commence at its latest shared-ownership development, Ophelia Court in the Park Gate ward.

The new development of nine, one and two-bedroom, shared ownership flats will be constructed on the former Scout Hut site on Montefiore Drive, Sarisbury Green.

Anyone wishing to register an interest in one of these shared-ownership properties should join Fareham Borough Council’s ‘Affordable Home Ownership Register’ which can be found on the webpage below. Interested parties will then be contacted by email when the properties are ready to be marketed.

Through the Wayfarer Partnership, Fareham Housing has secured Homes England funding for the development. FE Chase & Son Ltd has been selected to undertake the construction, using designs from KSA Architects Ltd. The whole development is expected to take around 12 months to complete.

Executive Member for Housing at Fareham Borough Council, Cllr David Foot said: “I am delighted that this development is commencing as it will provide much needed affordable homes in the Borough. It utilises a currently unused site to provide more residents with the opportunity to step onto the housing ladder in a quality, affordable home. This development comes off the back of the fabulous shared-ownership scheme we opened at Capella Close in Hill Head earlier this year and I am keen to see the final properties in around a year’s time.”
