Sell a garage site in Tewkesbury
Whether your land is in Tewkesbury itself or in the villages between Tewkesbury and Bishops Cleeve, we'll look at it properly before making any offer.
Lock-up garages are often too small for modern cars and expensive to maintain. As a housing site, a garage court can be worth considerably more.
- No commission: we're the buyer
- Figures explained, so you can check them
- No pressure to decide

What we look for around Tewkesbury
- Garage courts behind houses or flats

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
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.
Contamination
Old fuel, oil and asbestos roofs need checking and safe removal.

Planning and legal points for land in Gloucestershire
Planning framework
Planning decisions in England follow the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026, and the local plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. Plans are reviewed periodically, which is when new housing sites are usually allocated.
Brownfield first
National policy gives substantial weight to reusing suitable brownfield land for homes. Councils keep brownfield land registers, and some sites can gain permission in principle.
Land registration
Land in England is registered with HM Land Registry. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold, which your solicitor arranges.
When the land isn't straightforward
Some garages are let
We look at the terms. Licences often end on short notice, which we allow for in the timescale.
Neighbours use the access
We check existing rights and design around them.
Useful to send us
- A rough size, in acres or hectares
- Your title number, if you know it
- Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
- Photos of the land and its access
Your questions answered
What happens to people who rent the garages?
It depends on their agreements. Most are licences that end on notice, which we plan for with you.
Do you buy single garages?
Usually not on their own, unless combined with other land to make a site.
Do you need all the garages empty before buying?
No. We can exchange contracts and plan vacant possession as part of the deal.
Do you buy land in Tewkesbury?
Yes. We consider land in and around Tewkesbury and across Gloucestershire. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
