Land we're keen to see around Newport, Isle of Wight
- Plots for one to a handful of homes
- Plots with a road frontage or a private drive
- Plots with full or outline planning permission
- Unconsented plots in residential streets
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.
Access
Visibility splays and parking need room on smaller plots.

Planning and legal points for land in the Isle of Wight
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.
When the land isn't straightforward
Self-builders keep pulling out
Self-builders often need mortgages and stage finance. A builder buying direct can remove that uncertainty.
The plot shares a drive
Shared access needs the right legal rights. Your solicitor will check the deeds.
