Garage courts and yards wanted in Yeovil
We want to hear from owners of garage courts and yards in Yeovil. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.
Garage courts are blocks of lock-up garages, often behind houses, that are now too small for many modern cars. They can make good small housing sites, and we buy garage courts and small yards across England and Wales.

Is your land in Yeovil the kind we want?
We are looking for garage blocks and small yards around Yeovil, whether they are fully let, partly let or empty. Yeovil is in Somerset, about 21 miles east of Taunton. Nearby places include Dorchester, Bridgwater and Taunton.
- Lock-up garage blocks, let or empty
- Sites reached by a shared drive or lane
- Courts where some garages are let on licences
- Land with or without planning history
Nutrient neutrality advice linked to the Somerset Levels and Moors protected sites has affected housing across much of the county. The M5 corridor through Bridgwater and Taunton, and growth linked to Hinkley Point C, have increased demand for land near those towns.
What usually makes or breaks it
Displaced parking
Councils often want to know where current users will park.
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.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 115 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Garage courts and yards in Yeovil: common questions
Some garages are still rented. Is that a problem?
Usually not. Garage lets are often on short licences. We look at the terms and allow time to end them properly.
How many homes could fit?
It depends on the size and shape of the court and its access; small courts may take one or two homes, larger ones more.
Is Yeovil too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 115 miles from Yeovil, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Can an agent introduce land in Yeovil 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.
