Land we're keen to see around Camborne

  • Plots for one to a handful of homes
  • Plots with a road frontage or a private drive
  • Unconsented plots in residential streets
  • Plots where a previous permission has lapsed

Single plots are often overlooked by larger developers. We buy them because small sites matter and because our aim is to build on them.

The things that move our offer

Permission

A plot with full permission is worth the most because building can start once conditions are met.

Neighbours

Overlooking and loss of light to neighbours limit what can be built.

Services

Connections to water, power and sewers can cost more than you'd expect.

Self-build exemptions

Some plots carry obligations or exemptions linked to self-build that we check.

How a sale works

  1. Send us the address

    A postcode, a plan or a what3words location is enough to start.

  2. We do the homework

    We read the title and planning record and check flood risk and access.

  3. You get a written offer

    With the main figures behind it, so your adviser can check it.

  4. The legal work

    Your solicitor and ours handle the contract through to completion.

Planning and legal points for land in Cornwall

Planning framework

Planning decisions in England follow the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026, and the local plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. Plans are reviewed periodically, which is when new housing sites are usually allocated.

Section 106 and CIL

Larger schemes often need a Section 106 agreement for affordable housing or contributions, and councils that have adopted the Community Infrastructure Levy charge it per square metre of new floorspace.

Common problems, and how we handle them

Self-builders keep pulling out

Self-builders often need mortgages and stage finance. A builder buying direct can remove that uncertainty.

The permission has lapsed

A new application is often straightforward if policy hasn't changed, and we can make that a condition of purchase.

Useful to send us

  • The address or postcode
  • A rough size, in acres or hectares
  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Any planning applications or letters

Questions from landowners near Camborne

Will you buy a plot with an old house on it?

Yes. Demolition and rebuild can work well, and we price in demolition costs.

Do I need to clear the plot before selling?

No. We buy sites as they are.

What happens to any CIL on the plot?

Where CIL applies, it's usually paid by whoever builds. Some self-build exemptions exist, which we check.

Do you buy land in Camborne?

Yes. We consider land in and around Camborne and across Cornwall. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
