Is your land near Devizes a good fit?

  • Garage courts behind houses or flats
  • Rows of lock-ups with a private access road
  • Sites with an existing access onto a public road
  • Garages owned by individuals, companies or associations

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.

How we arrive at a figure for land in Wiltshire

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.

Contamination

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

Previously developed land

Garage courts are usually treated as brownfield, which can help planning.

Ways to sell this land

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 Wiltshire

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
  • How soon you'd ideally like to sell
