Garage courts and yards we are looking for in Winchester
Garage courts tucked behind homes in Winchester are often ideal for a small number of new houses or bungalows. Winchester is the county town of Hampshire. Nearby places we also cover include Eastleigh, Romsey and Hedge End.
- Lock-up garage blocks, let or empty
- Parking courts behind houses
- Small service yards and compounds
- Land with or without planning history
Nutrient neutrality advice has applied across much of south Hampshire because of the Solent's protected habitats, and coastal schemes contribute to recreation mitigation for overwintering birds. The M3 and M27 corridors carry most planned growth, with smaller sites in market towns such as Alton, Andover and Romsey.
What decides whether a site in Winchester works
Access rights
Neighbours may have rights to pass over the court to reach their own land.
Displaced parking
Councils often want to know where current users will park.
Ground conditions
Old fuel or asbestos garage roofs need sensible handling.
National policy in England now recognises "medium development" of 10 to 49 homes on sites up to 2.5 hectares, and asks councils to allocate at least 10% of their housing on sites of one hectare or less and a further 10% on sites of one to 2.5 hectares.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 106 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.
