Gardens are usually associated with houses but 66% of flats in Great Britain have access to some private outdoor space.


  • On average, flats have access to 357.8 square metres of private outdoor space which is usually shared and can consist of gardens, patios, terraces etc.
  • With space in London at a premium, the average private outdoor space is only 172.8 square metres – more than half the size of outdoor spaces in the South East (502.4 square metres).
