Garage courts and yards we are looking for in Burgess Hill

Water neutrality advice that held up many schemes around Crawley, Horsham and Chichester was withdrawn from 1 November 2025, though water efficiency remains important. Chichester Harbour and the coastal plain bring flood risk and mitigation considerations, while the Brighton Main Line and A23 corridor focus growth around Crawley and Burgess Hill.

What decides whether a site in Burgess Hill 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.

Since 6 August 2026, non-major development on sites of 0.2 hectares or less in England has generally been exempt from mandatory biodiversity net gain, unless priority habitat is affected. That makes many small sites simpler to bring forward.

Parts of West Sussex are Green Belt, though not every town has any nearby. We check early whether a site is inside it and, if so, whether a grey belt or previously developed land case could apply.

Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 134 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.
