Alverstoke market report PO12 1, Gosport
The standing PO12 1 (Alverstoke) property market report, rebuilt from the full public record every month. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 6,300 sales registered with HM Land Registry in PO12 1 (Gosport) since 1995, each one a completed purchase at a real price, plus current rental figures from the ONS. Nothing here is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Covers registered sales to 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.
In short: the middle 2026 sale in PO12 1 (Gosport) came in at £187,500, out of 61 registered, down 1% on five years earlier, and the mean stands at £199,100, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £2,680 per square metre over the last five years. The record behind it is 6,300 completed sales lodged with HM Land Registry since 1995, monthly refreshed, with no valuations or asking prices anywhere in the figures.
A postcode sector like PO12 1 is a single group of streets within PO12 (Gosport), the finest slice the public record supports. Fewer sales stand behind each figure than at district level, so the lines jump about more.

61 sales were registered in PO12 1 in 2026, and the middle one of them, the median, went for £187,500. The mean works out at £199,100, somewhat above it, as happens wherever a market carries an expensive tail.
House prices per square metre in PO12 1
A square metre of PO12 1 home has cost about £2,680 on average across the last five years of sales, using the floor area on each home's Energy Performance Certificate: the measure that puts a studio and a five-bed on the same footing.

| 1996 | £43,500 | £91,740 | 160 |
| 1995 | £42,500 | £92,388 | 136 |
In cash terms the typical PO12 1 home went from £42,500 in 1995 to £187,500 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 103%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2008. The market now sits about 24% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the PO12 1 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+29.9% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−20.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −1.3% | −3.6% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | −0.3% | −4.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.0% | −1.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.8% | −1.0% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Transaction volumes
How many homes change hands
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 61 sales completed in PO12 1. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 288 sales a year before the financial crisis and 134 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
The shape of the PO12 1 market
Within PO12, this sector trades 18% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.
What homes rent for around PO12 1
PO12 1 falls under Gosport, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,158 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £815 a month here against £1,713 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Gosport
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £187,500 median sold price, £1,158 a month is £13,896 a year, a gross yield of 7.4%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

Moving up a bedroom in PO: the cost
Real sold prices by size across the PO area, straight from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.

About the numbers: everything is computed from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data (Crown copyright, OGL v3.0), geocoded to the address; today's-money figures use the ONS CPIH index, and rents are the ONS Price Index of Private Rents by local authority. These are medians of recorded sales, not valuations, and none of it is financial advice.
