Description
The property comprises an 18 Century Grade II Listed building with 19th Century additions. The building is arranged over three-storeys and is an attractive exposed brick-built structure with a clay tiled roof. It features traditional wooden-framed sash fenestration, with attractive bay windows. There are access points on multiple sides of the building. The site includes a front area suitable for outdoor seating and a larger lawned space at the rear, offering additional potential.

Fareham Town Centre
Fareham Town Centre is undergoing a major transformation and town centre operators are perfectly positioned to benefit. A proactive Council, a clear long‑term regeneration strategy, and rising visitor numbers are creating ideal conditions for strong, sustainable trade.

A Growing Day‑to‑Night Destination

- Fareham Live, the new 800+ seat arts and entertainment venue, is already drawing thousands of visitors and is rapidly establishing a strong pre‑ and post‑show market.
-A revitalised events programme from Artisan Markets to Fareham’s Big Weekend to Christmas Lights Switch‑On – all driving year‑round footfall.

Prime Conditions for Success

- Major regeneration is reshaping the town centre into a more walkable, experience‑driven and attractive destination.
- An evening pedestrian route through Fareham Shopping Centre channels visitors and residents directly through the town centre, improving connectivity and boosting exposure for well‑located venues such as Westbury Manor.
- Public realm improvements, new homes and better connectivity will ensure increasing dwell time and a broader, more diverse customer base.

Why Westbury Manor Stands Out

- A characterful Grade II listed landmark building with unique indoor–outdoor potential perfect for dining, premium café and bar concepts, boutique event spaces, hotels and hybrid hospitality.
- Positioned directly on West Street’s main pedestrian route, minutes from the train and bus stations, Market Quay public parking and Fareham Live theatre.
- Strong trade potential from theatre audiences, workers, shoppers, families, and the growing evening economy.

Internal Description
Upon entering the building, it is arranged into a number of interconnecting rooms. Some are more intimate in style but the main café, which is positioned centrally has an adjoining seating area room which has an open feel to it. All the rooms are in good decorative order with traditional features. There are WC facilities also located on the ground floor. The first floor can be accessed via a traditional staircase, as well as more modern (fire) staircase position to the side of the building and finally a DDA compliant lift. The first floor has a similar layout to the ground floor. Second floor which again has the benefit of two staircases comprises of a small kitchen and a number of intimate rooms which could lend itself to being converted to owners or managers accommodation.
