The yard-

"Already it was deep summer on roadhouse roofs and in front of wayside garages, where new red gas-pumps sat out in pools of light, and when I reached my estate at West Egg I ran the car under its shed and sat for a while on an abandoned grass roller in the yard."

Nick's home is small and located on the island of West Egg. It is "squeezed between" two large mansions. Many consider the house to be an "eye-sore' that's been neglected and 'overlooked.
