Milton market report PO4 0, Southsea
The PO4 0 (Milton) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Every figure on this page comes from the public record: 9,051 sales registered with HM Land Registry in PO4 0 (Southsea) 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.
Sales data to 2026. Rents: ONS, May 2026. Regenerated with every monthly data refresh.
In short: 59 registered 2026 sales put the PO4 0 (Southsea) median at £239,000, up 2% on five years earlier, with a mean of £261,100, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £3,240 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 9,051 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
PO4 0 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside PO4 (Southsea). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

House prices per square metre in PO4 0
Averaged across five years of sales, floor space in PO4 0 costs about £3,240 per square metre. Each sale's Energy Performance Certificate supplies the floor area, and pricing by the metre is what lets flats and houses share one scale.
England and Wales as a whole trade at a £285,000 median, leaving PO4 0 16% below the national figure.

In cash terms the typical PO4 0 home went from £47,000 in 1995 to £239,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 134%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2018; the current median sits about 24% below that. Someone who bought at the 2018 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the PO4 0 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 2002 (+25.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2026 (−6.0%). 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) | −6.0% | −8.2% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +0.3% | −4.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +2.3% | −1.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.5% | −0.3% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Transaction volumes
The year-by-year sales count
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
PO4 0 recorded 59 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 422 sales a year before the financial crisis and 151 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
The rental side of PO4 0
For renting purposes PO4 0 sits in Portsmouth. The ONS average private rent there is £1,366 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £899 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,961, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Portsmouth
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
£1,366 a month is £16,392 a year, which against the £239,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 6.9%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.
What kind of market PO4 0 is
This is a thin market: 59 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. Against the PO4 district median, PO4 0 sits 11% lower, marking it as a cheaper pocket of the district.

How much did a house sell for in PO4 0 (Milton)?
Are property prices falling in PO4 0 (Milton)?
Is PO4 0 (Milton) a good place to buy a house?
What happens to PO4 0 prices now?
Nobody can tell you that, and this page will not pretend to. What the record shows: the median is roughly flat over five years in cash but down 20% after inflation. If you are weighing a purchase, read the volume chart alongside the price one, and remember that every figure here is a completed sale, lagged by the weeks it takes the Land Registry to register it.
On the market in PO4 today
Turning to what is actually available: 44 homes on the market right now, from 7 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole PO4 district, not just PO4 0: live asking prices are collected per district.
27% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. Every listing is measured against recent recorded sales of similar nearby homes.
"Under comparable sales" compares each asking price with what similar homes nearby actually sold for. It is a starting point for a conversation, not a valuation. Always look at the home itself.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
Moving up a bedroom in PO: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the PO area, from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £350,000 | £475,000 (+36%) | £675,000 (+42%) | £900,000 (+33%) |
| Semi-detached | £273,250 | £305,000 (+12%) | £352,500 (+16%) | £430,000 (+22%) | £610,000 (+42%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
