Fareham · Hampshire

Average home prices reached £334,000 in Fareham.

Fareham local authority area. July 2026. Every figure carries its own date.

Fareham combines an established town centre and arts venue with major growth at Welborne and business proposals at Daedalus. The key test is whether homes, schools, transport and jobs arrive together. County-led roads and schools are shown separately from the borough council’s planning and regeneration role.

Data table and workings

Published UK House Price Index average price, all property types and all buyers, not seasonally adjusted. Entire series comes from the 2026-07 official full-file release, preserving its historical revisions and exact area codes. It is a mix-adjusted average, not the median price paid.

Prices are in pounds at the time, not adjusted for inflation.

Whole local authority area; not a typical home listing or the budget needed by a first-time buyer.

Provisional estimates can be revised. Historical boundaries follow the exact published source code; no old-code series has been relabelled.

The table retains the full reviewed history when the chart is shortened. Preset ranges end at this measure’s latest published period. Yearly windows count published annual periods; monthly windows count months. Gaps are never filled with estimates.

Keep services in step with Welborne homes

Welborne has its first residents while school and village-centre elements remain at different stages.

A home needs usable daily services and safe routes, not only a completed building.

Local work to follow

Welborne Garden Village, north of Fareham

Welborne: homes and a new community

The first residents arrived in 2025. Schools, a village centre, jobs and transport are separate parts of the wider development.

First residents recorded; later phases ongoing or planned · source does not state a status date

Responsible body: Buckland Development and Welborne Land, with Fareham Borough Council and Hampshire County Council

Latest evidence: The council timeline records first occupations, open space and the start of village-centre construction in 2025. A primary-school consultation and a planned Junction 10 opening appear under 2026; the timeline does not prove those facilities are operating.

What is still missing

The reviewed local schemes are a selected evidence collection, not a complete council capital programme.

Current service capacity, incomes, waiting lists, school demand and project outcomes need additional verified local evidence before firm claims can be made.

These are selected local projects and issues, not a complete inventory of council work. Delivery stages describe the dated evidence, not an assumption that scheduled work has happened.

Action-plan steps are UK Facts proposals for scrutiny and delivery. They are not new council commitments, funded programmes or promised deadlines.

Project locations do not prove that a whole ward benefits. Costs and funding are shown only where the reviewed source states them; blank values mean unverified, not zero.

Welborne and Daedalus are development areas, not separate councils. Proposed job creation is not counted as jobs delivered.
