The apartment has a unique storage area (formally changing rooms),

Yes, if by ‘conversion’ you mean ‘I stuck a bed in the middle of the gym, what more do you want?’

In a fair world, this would be body's gaff.
Wait, I looked at it and there are... No windows? What about the plants?

After lawyering up and making clear that we own exclusive rights and access to the barn and garage, he conceded that we were right. I played it super friendly and said he could have a month to clear out the garage and that he could even store some of his stuff in our barn.
Six weeks later and he hasn’t bothered to clear the garage out. Still hasn’t given us the keys. My wife pulled him up about it the other day and he says “Oh, it’s quite a task. It’ll take me at least another month. I have a freezer in there full of meat that belongs to another chap in the village. It’ll be three weeks before he can come collect it.”
He’s simultaneously filling up our barn with his belongings. Not even stuff that’s coming from the garage, just random stuff. Lawnmowers, trailers, furniture, all sorts. Not just the ‘firewood and a few bits and pieces’ we agreed.
He’s also locked the doors to two rooms in the barn and kept the keys for himself. That’s not on at all – locking us out of rooms in our own building? Er, no.
Then, this afternoon, my wife spots him taking a couple of his pals from the village for a wander around our meadow. The one he sold to us along with the house. Which is very much private property and basically the same as him just deciding to invite folk into our garden.
So yeah … just venting a bit here before I go give him a talking to.
We’ve been amazingly generous and he’s taking the piss. We gave him a month’s grace, rent-free, on a garage/lock-up. We offered him free access and free self-storage in our barn for as long as he lives here. And he’s still refusing to hand over the keys and vacate the spaces we own outright. He needs to give his head a wobble.
