I am assuming that the two homes associated with this block have two colours of front door. Detached garage blocks were a characteristic of the years at the start of the 21st century, when John Prescott was the minister in charge of many things, including housing. It was a requirement that houses be built without provision for motor cars (an attempt to encourage the use of public transport). This may have made sense to the metropolitan mind, but in rural Lincolnshire was wholly ridiculous. Thus, housebuilders took to building separate garages, on separate plots, and selling them "separately" to the houses.
