Sell a garage site in Hawarden

If you own land around Hawarden and want a straight answer about it, we'll tell you whether we can buy it, on what terms, and what the offer is based on.

A garage site is a block or court of lock-up garages, often built in the 1960s and 1970s behind houses or flats. Many are now underused, and their access and hardstanding can make them good sites for a small number of new homes.

  • Free appraisal and written offer
  • Figures explained, so you can check them

Is your land near Hawarden a good fit?

  • Garage blocks with some or all garages vacant
  • Garages owned by individuals, companies or associations
  • Sites where neighbours have rights to use the access
  • Garage sites already granted permission

We buy garage blocks with or without tenants, and with or without planning permission, and explain what happens to any existing licences.

The things that move our offer

Access width

The existing access must be safe for homes, including for emergency vehicles.

Rights of others

Neighbours may have rights to use the access or park, which must be respected.

Tenants and licences

Garage licences can usually be ended on notice; leases need more care.

Overlooking

Garage courts are often enclosed by gardens, which limits the height of new homes.

Outright purchase

Suits sites with consent or owners who want a clean exit.

Option agreements

Rarely needed unless several garage owners are involved.

Planning and legal points for land in Clwyd

Planning framework

Planning in Wales follows Planning Policy Wales, the national plan Future Wales and the Local Development Plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. When plans are reviewed, landowners can put land forward as a candidate site.

Previously developed land

Welsh policy prefers reusing suitable previously developed land in sustainable locations before greenfield sites.

Land registration

HM Land Registry covers Wales as well as England. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold.

Awkward details we deal with

The roofs are asbestos

Asbestos cement roofs are common and can be removed safely by licensed contractors. We price it in.

Neighbours use the access

We check existing rights and design around them.

Useful to send us

  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Any planning applications or letters
  • Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
  • Photos of the land and its access

Questions from landowners near Hawarden

Can garage sites be turned into homes?

Often, yes. Many councils support redeveloping underused garage courts, subject to access, overlooking and parking.

Do you buy single garages?

Usually not on their own, unless combined with other land to make a site.

Who deals with asbestos?

If we buy, we take on removal using licensed contractors, and the cost is reflected in our offer.

Do you cover the villages around Hawarden?

Yes. Villages between Hawarden, Deeside and Buckley often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
