Transform Your Portsmouth Property With Seamless Sliding Wardrobes
March 2024

Portsmouth may not be the biggest of cities, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in rich naval history, British heritage, popular tourist attractions and more pubs per square mile than any other city in the UK! Locally nicknamed Pompey, it’s the country’s only island city and was once deemed the “second coolest city to live in the UK” (after London).
A Coastal City Awash With English History & Culture
Much like the nearby Hampshire city of Southampton, Portsmouth is famed for its maritime history – the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard is home to iconic ships like the HMS Victory, as well as the National Museum of the Royal Navy. Further along the harbour, this old-time naval heritage is contrasted by the contemporary architecture of the Spinnaker Tower, emulating a sail that stands proudly over the city. On the south coast, the popular seaside resort of Southsea is a hub of history and activity in itself. You’ll find Southsea Castle, the D-Day Museum and the quintessentially British seaside locale of South Parade Pier here. The area also plays host to the annual Victorious Music Festival which is a huge draw for music and comedy lovers. The wider county of Hampshire itself also has something of a literary legacy – Jane Austen was born and lived not far from Basingstoke, while Portsmouth counts itself as the birthplace of Charles Dickens.
Living In Classic Seaside Style
Portsmouth, like many coastal towns and cities, is an attractive place to live for people and families of all ages – offering a diverse range of homes, from the compact to the grandiose. Southsea boasts beautiful period architecture, including stunning Victorian properties, many of which have been converted into luxurious apartments. Areas such as Copnor and Fratton are marked by traditional terraces, while Old Portsmouth holds the quaint charm of an old fishing village. In contrast, modern apartments and high-rise buildings are more common in the city centre and along the city’s famed waterfront, offering contemporary living with stunning sea views. Further north, away from the city itself, suburban neighbourhoods like Hilsea and Cosham feature semi-detached and detached family homes, from classic Edwardian properties to new builds and stylish apartments.
