Understanding the Housing Market in Portsmouth: Key Facts and Figures

A port city on the South Coast of Hampshire on Portsea Island, Portsmouth is around 70 miles away from London and around 20 miles away from Southampton. Founded as a port in Roman times, it was recognised as a town by royal charter in 1194 to become a very significant naval base, described, at the height of the British Empire, as the world's greatest naval port and which, by the start of the 19th century, was the most heavily fortified city in the world. Today, the base holds two-thirds of the Royal Navy's surface fleet, employing nearly 18,000 people. 10% of Portsmouth's workforce is employed by the Naval Dockyard. The defence industry sits, inarguably, at the economic heart of the city, as it has done for close to a thousand years. One would think that Portsmouth, dominated by a massive naval base, would not necessarily present a strong draw for tourists but when it comes to Britain's only island city, nothing could be further from the case. The city is steeped in maritime history, having had pivotal roles in those events in history that are still central to British identities, such as the Battle of the Solent or the D-Day Landings. In the Historic Dockyard, visitors can see three of the country's most famous ships: the HMS Victory, the Mary Rose and HMS Warrior. There is also the popular Royal Navy Submarine Museum. And these are to name only a spattering of navel-based attractions that the city has to offer. Tourism, it is fair to say, in Portsmouth, is booming. Portsmouth has a long-term plan in place for development, with the Portsmouth Economic Development and Regeneration Strategy, looking forward to 2036. The strategy aims to “Make Portsmouth Britain’s premier waterfront technology and innovation city – a great place to invest, learn, live, work and visit and the most attractive place for starting, growing or relocating a business.” It recognises that growth has been somewhat slow in the city compared to similar locations and that there is some over-reliance on aerospace and defence, in terms of local GVA. The plan, in a nutshell, is to further capitalise on the marine technology industry, whilst encouraging further, those creative and digital industries, that have seen the fastest growth, over recent years. The city centre is quite compact and offers a fairly small number of city living options, that is, apartment blocks and flat conversions for young professionals who want to be close to city centre amenities. There are, however, some new-build blocks alongside traditional terraces and Gunwharf Quays is a popular, smart development, out to the west, of city apartments, with retail, dining and leisure that are easily accessible. OId Portsmouth is, as the name suggests, the most historic part of the city and is more popular with families. Victorian and Edwardian properties, with a lot of old guest houses having been converted into modern HMOs, the area is a seaside suburb with a beach, a promenade and two piers.
