Garage courts and yards wanted in Atherstone
We want to hear from owners of garage courts and yards in Atherstone. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.
A garage court or small yard is often underused land in the middle of a residential area. Redeveloping it for a few homes can work well, provided access, parking and neighbours are handled carefully.

Is your land in Atherstone the kind we want?
Across Atherstone, lock-up blocks that are half empty can be a better use of land as homes, with parking handled sensibly. In Warwickshire, Atherstone sits about 20 miles north of Warwick; Nuneaton and Bedworth are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Lock-up garage blocks, let or empty
- Small service yards and compounds
- Courts where some garages are let on licences
- Land with or without planning history
The M40, M6 and M69 corridors and the Chiltern Main Line through Warwick and Leamington Spa attract interest, along with land near the High Speed 2 route. The south of the county has many conservation-area villages, so heritage and design are often important considerations for small sites.
What decides whether a site in Atherstone works
Access rights
Neighbours may have rights to pass over the court to reach their own land.
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.
In England, a planning permission normally has to be implemented within three years unless the council sets a different period, and councils aim to decide minor applications within eight weeks and major ones within thirteen.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 15 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Frequently asked in Warwickshire
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.
Which planning rules apply to land in Atherstone?
As Atherstone is in England, national policy comes from the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026. Local policies in the council's development plan also apply.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Atherstone assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
