New Local Retailer Arrives in Portsmouth

4-6 Isambard Brunel Road is a ground floor retail premises, measuring 3,775 sq ft, situated in Portsmouth City Centre. The property benefits from suspended ceilings, air conditioning, a loading area, a store room and office.

The premises occupy a prominent and accessible location in Central Portsmouth, adjacent to Portsmouth and Southsea Railway Station and in close proximity to Guildhall Square, the Civic Offices and Premier Inn hotel. The prime retail area of Portsmouth, Commercial Road is also nearby.

The Premier Store tenants have signed a long term lease at the property, with the deal being completed in August 2021. Hellier Langston, who manages the property for the landlord, received a number of enquiries for the property from a range of users.

Andy Hellier, Director at Hellier Langston commented "The Co-Op had ceased trading from the property in 2019, so we had been aware there would be a need to secure a new tenant for some time. Given the location in the heart of the city, it was no surprise on the level of interest we received and it is great to see a tenant in and trading successfully once again.”

The Premier Store tenants commented ‘‘The site is in a great location, it always had high footfall due to the train station and University accommodation. We always thought we could make the site work provided we can get the correct layout for the store and offer something different. It's still early days but trading has gone well and sales have increased week by week. We would like to say thanks to Andy and his team for making this transaction go smoothly."
