Tenants and local residents in Larne, Carrick and Ballymena are being invited to apply to rent the garages, which are available for a cost of around £12.43 per week.

The Housing Executive said the garages are in good order and suitable for housing a family car or for storage.

Louis Richmond, Housing Executive lettings manager for Mid and East Antrim, said: “We’re offering the rental of garages to anyone in these localities – not just Housing Executive tenants.

"Our garages provide the opportunity for local people to avail of lower insurance premiums by parking their car off-road. Although primarily for use as a car port, they may also be useful to local people in need of a bit of extra storage space.

"There is no minimum lease term and we only require two weeks’ notice to recall a tenancy if someone changes their mind.

“We do stress that the garages are for private use and are not fully waterproofed – something to bear in mind if storing household goods.

"Additionally, we’d also recommend those renting take out insurance cover and ensure that everything kept in the garage is stored with a weatherproof cover.”
