Introducing St John’s Square, Southsea
CREATING A CALM AND CONNECTED PLACE
St John’s Square is a local landmark reimagined for modern living; an exclusive collection of characterful homes with high- spec interiors, set in one of the South Coast’s most vibrant neighbourhoods. With the seafront, Southsea Common, independent shops, and the King’s Theatre all nearby, this
is a place where comfort, connection, and a sense of belonging come together.
Designed for tranquillity and mindful escape, St John’s Square’s many gardens and green pockets bring nature to your doorstep.
A HOME FOR EVERY HOUSEHOLD
St John’s Square sustainably reuses and reimagines former school buildings, complementing characterful details with contemporary luxury and the clean lines of sensitively-designed new-builds. Mature trees and newly-planted gardens add to the sense of a perfect balance between new and old.
At St John’s Square, period charm and contemporary design sit side by side: some homes set within reimagined heritage buildings, others newly built to complement their setting. Inside, each apartment pairs quality finishes and modern comfort with a subtle sense of character and space.

Happy Customers
Brilliant selling experience so far, House was marketed so well, got offer in just 3 weeks and the whole process from putting on market to accepting offer has been seemless and stress free.
Just signed a house with Bernards and had the absolute best experience. We’re moving from the North cross-country but our lettings manager, Amber, made the experience stress free. Her willingness to help us, answer any questions, genuine care and bubbly personality put us at ease straight away and we can’t thank her enough!
Jamie is an absolutely amazing mortgage advisor helped me through every process
Emma Harbinson has been managing the property we live in for three years now and she has consistently been very professional and helpful whenever we have had to report an issue. She listens to our concerns and does her best to help. When she visits the property for the regular checks she is always polite and respectful, giving us enough notice and responding to emails promptly. Best property manager I’ve had as a tenant.
Ayesha has been wonderful to work with from start to finish. She is knowledgable, easy to talk to and patient with all my many queries! As a first time buyer, it’s a daunting process and Ayesha was great at taking me through everything slowly and clearly.
Trying to rent a house with Bernards was a very positive experience. The agent Lucky was very helpful, friendly and patient with me and my needs when trying to find a house. Throughout the process I received the necessary support and all the updates, documents or information. I had experiences with other agencies before and I have to say that Bernards was the agency that stood out the most, which is why I am also taking the time to leave this very positive review. The team is very friendly and always ready to help, whether by phone or email. I will definitely rent with them again.
As a landlord of a luxury apartment in Gunwharf Quays Portsmouth since 2008 I have worked with the Southsea Bernards Estate Agent Letting Team to provide safe, clean and comfortable living accommodation to professional individuals. Over the years good communications between the staff, accounts, check in or out team and senior managers has allowed us to resolve any issues promptly to ensure the tenant(s) receive an excellent service throughout the tenancy period.
Craig and Joe were very helpful and kept us informed of each stage of the sale ensuring things were followed up quickly. Would definitely recommend Bernard’s Southsea
