An affordable homes provider has taken over 18 new homes in Fareham.

The homes, located in Bath Lane, were developed in partnership with Imperial Homes and have since been taken over by VIVID.

The new two to three-bedroom houses include eight designated for social rent and ten for shared ownership.

Tristan Samuels, group development and new business director at VIVID, said: "This charming development will provide much needed affordable housing in central Fareham. We’re delighted to welcome new customers into their brand-new homes."

Ben Olds, land director at Imperial Homes, said: "Many local businesses and neighbouring homeowners were eager to see this prominent town centre site regenerated, and we’re delighted to have delivered the consented scheme for VIVID."

Construction began in January 2022, with the first homes completed in September 2024.

The new properties are intended to support the regeneration of Fareham's town centre, following the opening of the Fareham Live entertainment venue in September.
