Lakeside North Harbour is an expanding landmark business location set within 130 stunning acres of landscaped grounds close to the M27 north of Portsmouth city centre.
Located in a prominent position at the gateway to the Solent Corridor, it is home to world-class brands and vibrant SMEs in superb, flexible grade A office space. More than 50 companies and nearly 5,000 jobs are on one campus in five impressive buildings with impeccable transport links.
Lakeside includes first class retail, great parking facilities for 3,000 vehicles, an on-site nursery school and a three-star hotel with pool, gym and Starbucks and a free shuttle bus.
Office accommodation is nestled amongst the mature landscaped grounds and centred around a feature lake – offering wellbeing and community in the perfect environment.
This includes the striking atrium in Building 1000, featuring art exhibitions, meeting rooms and an onsite café.
Building 3000 is home to a 250-seater auditorium, a business lounge for informal meetings, and a winter garden and courtyard – complete with relaxed seating and ping pong tables, a gateway to the wider Lakeside environment.
The onsite amenities at Lakeside – including a fitness studio, beauty salon, hotel with a fully equipped spa and gym, and five cafes and shops – offer convenience for occupiers, while the landscape provides the perfect getaway from the office.
The benefits of taking space at Lakeside go far beyond the boardroom – more opportunities for collaboration, more opportunities for establishing work/life balance and more opportunities to grow the business. Community and wellbeing in the perfect environment comes in the shape of guided lake walks, park runs, weekly street food markets and charity partnerships.
Flexible space is available from 500 sq. ft to 12,000 sq. ft. Development land opportunities are also there for businesses looking for more than an office suite and perhaps searching for the right location for a new HQ or flagship office development.
The campus boasts unbeatable motorway access from Junction 12 of the M27, as well as quick links towards London, Portsmouth’s ferry ports (International for France and Spain, and Wightlink for the Isle of Wight) and Southampton Airport.
