Overview.
On behalf of the landowners, Hallam Land and MCC, we are pleased to offer this unique urban extension to the market.
A sustainable community, within a parkland setting, nestled on the southern edge of Fareham.
Strategically located, residential development site benefiting from outline planning consent for up to 1,200 homes, 80 bed care home, country park and key community infrastructure.
This represents a significant opportunity for a range of housebuilders to acquire a large, well-positioned landholding with substantial potential.
Location.
Newlands is located on the southern edge of Fareham, nestled between the established communities of Stubbington and Peel Common. Fareham town centre is located approximately 2km to northeast and contains a range of retail and employment opportunities.
Immediately south of Longfield Avenue and Rowan Way, Peak Lane runs from north to south through the Site from Fareham to Stubbington, dividing the site into two parcels of land. On the eastern boundary is HMS Collingwood and agricultural fields to the south. The western parcel of land is bounded by agricultural fields to the south and Ranvilles Lane to the west, with Oxley’s Coppice enclosing the land from the north.
The site is within easy walking and cycling distance of local services and facilities, public transport links and public right of way network. It also benefits from its close proximity to the Solent Enterprise Zone at Daedalus and the railway station.
