Can you buy them from the council?
We are looking to buy a house, and we have found the most perfect property but would need access from the rear to put a garage in the back garden. but there is en-bloc garages there. well in fact where i would need access the end three garages have been knocked down and are now just parking spaces, but they dont actually belong to the house, although the house owners now have used all three for the last six years with no problem... also there is a small path way about two feet from the parking spaces and the back fence!!

No idea on the question at hand but that looks like a lovely house chap..
You can always tell a nice house inside by the garden outside i find.

Looks nice
When we was looking for a house we found a place like that with garages at the back that would have been perfect.
But the council (Dunstable) would let me buy them due to the access rights to the other garages![Sad](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
Hope your situation will be different.

behind the fence is a foot path about two feet wide, then the garage's back on to that... but as said where i would like to gain access the end three are not there.

Nice looking gaff mate, plenty of scope for a garage there! i just bought my first place earlier this year, three bed end terrace bungalow, with detached double garage and fair sized gardens. Mortgauge is a killer but the garage is ace! paid 125k for it
just got to decorate the place now

why not just rent the garage and put a gate up and not tell anyone, its not gonna be YEARS till your cossie is done,,,,, by then you will be have bought a bungalow and retired so why not think of the garden for junior then let him worry about buying a house with a garage for his dads classic car he left him in his will,,,,,, though hes prob gonna still have to wait a bit for it to be finished too pmsl
looks a fucking nice house,,,,,,,,, guess thats where i should start looking for that cash !!!
