Is your land in Prescot the kind we want?
Garage courts tucked behind homes in Prescot are often ideal for a small number of new houses or bungalows. In Merseyside, Prescot sits about 7 miles east of Liverpool; Huyton and St Helens are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Lock-up garage blocks, let or empty
- Parking courts behind houses
- Small service yards and compounds
- Land with or without planning history
Merseyside centres on Liverpool, with Birkenhead and Wallasey across the Mersey, Southport and Formby on the coast, and towns such as St Helens, Bootle, Huyton and Kirkby. Green Belt separates many of these places and covers much of the remaining open land, so most housing comes from previously developed land, docks, former industrial estates and town-centre sites. Grey belt and small fringe sites can also come forward.
What decides whether a site in Prescot 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.
Overlooking
Courts are usually close to existing homes, so design must protect privacy.
The August 2026 NPPF supports homes within reasonable walking distance (around 800 metres) of well-connected railway stations, with minimum densities of 35 homes per hectare, or 45 near higher-frequency stations.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 71 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 Prescot too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 71 miles from Prescot, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Can an agent introduce land in Prescot 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.
