One of the most compelling examples is the four-bed house at Europa Flats in the South District.
This modern terraced house benefits from the embedded garage, which offers weather-protected parking and secure storage - a premium in Gibraltar. For families with multiple vehicles or a desire for extra storage space, having that garage makes a real difference.
Beyond the parking, the property’s location on a quiet cul-de-sac off Europa Road, its southwest-facing private garden and four bedrooms mark it out as a genuine family home. The garage is not just a ‘nice-to-have’ but part of the lifestyle.
Why this matters:
✅Garages reduce the stress of street parking, especially in older parts of Gibraltar.
✅A secure garage can double as storage/workshop space.
✅Homes with garages often command premium value and resale appeal.
Another standout from Richardson’s is the townhouse in the North Gorge development in the South District.
Here you’re looking at the best of both worlds: driveway AND garage. That means you can park two or more vehicles (one on the drive, one locked in the garage), which is a real luxury in Gibraltar. The townhouse also offers four double bedrooms, three bathrooms, open plan living, a balcony and roof garden. The integrated garage is a key premium feature.
For buyers relocating with multiple cars, or investing and offering long-term tenants parking convenience, this strikes a strong note.
Key take-aways:
✅ Garage + driveway = flexibility for multiple vehicles or visitors.
✅ Integrated garage adds value, especially in newer developments.
✅ Ideal for modern families or car-enthusiasts.

A semi-detached colonial style home on Witham’s Road in the South District with a double garage.
A double garage - meaning two cars side-by-side or one car + extra storage - is a rare find in Gibraltar. Particularly for a period property from 1884. The fact that a home like this carries a double garage is remarkable, and absolutely worth noting for buyers with multiple cars or those looking for added storage/workshop space.
The combination of historic charm, garden space and a double garage is the kind of one-off offering that stands out.
Why this matters:
✅Character properties often come with permit parking only
✅A double garage means TWO cars can be stored here
✅Witham's Road is narrow and tight, a garage is essential here to protect from scratches
Built into an 18th Century quarry, parking is provided by way of a lock-up garage accessed from Windmill Hill and an additional car port directly below the property.
Location: the South District, small cul-de-sac, elevated, sea-view potential. The lock-up garage is explicitly mentioned as part of the offering. For a home that feels “like a typical English cul-de-sac” in Gibraltar, this kind of parking is a differentiator.
Buyers who care about secure parking, perhaps commuting to Spain or who have family vehicles, will appreciate this lock-up garage.
Benefits:
✅The secluded nature of the house relative to Gibraltar will appeal to two car famillies
✅The extra width to the garagfe is great for storage
✅Built like an old English Victorian terrace but with the garage gives the best of both worlds
Why Garages Matter in Gibraltar
It’s worth reflecting on why garages add so much to the appeal of a home in Gibraltar:
✅ Scarce parking: Because land is limited, parking spaces (especially private ones) are at a premium. A garage is essentially a high-value add-on.
✅ Security & condition: A garage means the vehicle is protected from the elements (salt air, sun) and from street theft or damage.
✅ Storage & flexibility: It isn’t just about the car — many homes use the garage for bikes, surf/watersports gear, workshop, or extra storage.
✅ Resale premium: Homes promoted with “garage included” resonate with both locals and overseas buyers, raising perceived value.
✅ Lifestyle fit: With many buyers commuting, having private parking simplifies life considerably.
In short: if you’re seeing a home advertised via Richardson’s with garage or parking clearly mentioned, it’s worth sitting up and paying attention.
How to Use These Listings for Your Own Search
Here are some tips for buyers in Gibraltar looking for homes with garages.
Read the fine print: Some listings might mention “parking space” or “allocated parking” or even "garage space" but not a true lock-up garage. The difference matters.
Check dimensions & access: A “garage” must have secure access and enough space for your vehicle(s) - ask for measurements or viewing.
Consider the driveway too: Some properties combine garage + driveway (ideal for visitors or extra vehicle).
Look at future resale value: Properties with garages often hold or increase value better - factor that into your budgeting.
Think about maintenance / management fees: Especially in developments with communal parking, there may be service charges (check listing)
Location vs parking trade-off: In tighter older districts, you may get historic charm but less parking; newer developments may offer garage. Our North Gorge townhouse is a good example of newer design + integrated garage.
Ask about vehicle restrictions: In Upper Town for example, you may find narrow entrances or height limits in garages - view in person if possible (or via virtual viewing). Virtual viewings are a useful tool, especially for overseas buyers, but check any points you place emphasis on in person.
