Is your land in Stroud the kind we want?
We are looking for garage blocks and small yards around Stroud, whether they are fully let, partly let or empty. Stroud lies about 8 miles south of Gloucester in Gloucestershire. We also cover Dursley, Gloucester, Cirencester and the villages between them.
- Lock-up garage blocks, let or empty
- Parking courts behind houses
- Sites reached by a shared drive or lane
- Courts where some garages are let on licences
Flood risk from the Severn and its tributaries is a defining constraint around Gloucester and Tewkesbury, and sites near the tidal estuary need careful assessment. The M5 corridor between Gloucester and Cheltenham, and towns with railway stations such as Stroud and Yate, attract the most housing interest.
Before we make an offer in Stroud
Overlooking
Courts are usually close to existing homes, so design must protect privacy.
Licences and tenants
Garage licences are usually easy to end, but we check the terms.
Ground conditions
Old fuel or asbestos garage roofs need sensible handling.
Where an English council cannot show a five-year supply of housing land, or its Housing Delivery Test result falls below 75%, the August 2026 NPPF can give policy support to suitable housing outside settlement boundaries.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 57 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Your questions answered
Who else might have rights over the court?
Neighbours sometimes have rights of way across garage courts. We check the title and any deeds for this.
Do you buy council or housing association garages?
We are happy to discuss sites with public bodies and housing providers, subject to their own disposal rules.
Is Stroud too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 57 miles from Stroud, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Can an agent introduce land in Stroud to you?
Yes. Estate agents, land agents and planning consultants can introduce sites with the owner's consent. Any fee is agreed in writing before details are shared, confirmed by the owner in writing and paid only on completion.
