Is your land near Kilburn a good fit?

  • Rows of lock-ups with a private access road
  • Garage blocks with some or all garages vacant
  • Sites where neighbours have rights to use the access
  • Garage sites already granted permission

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.

The things that move our offer

Access width

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

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.

Choosing how to sell

Outright purchase

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

Subject-to-planning sale

The most common route for garage courts.

Option agreements

Rarely needed unless several garage owners are involved.

Joint ventures

Possible for larger courts.

Planning and legal points for land in Greater London

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.

Common problems, and how we handle them

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

  • The address or postcode
  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Details of any tenants or grazing agreements

Your questions answered

Do you buy single garages?

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

Is a garage court brownfield land?

Usually it's treated as previously developed land, which can help the planning case.

Do you need all the garages empty before buying?

No. We can exchange contracts and plan vacant possession as part of the deal.
