Is your land near Yeadon a good fit?

  • Plots for one to a handful of homes
  • Plots with a road frontage or a private drive
  • Unconsented plots in residential streets
  • Corner plots and end-of-terrace side plots

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

What affects the price

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.

Local values

Plot values follow what a finished home would sell for locally.

Rules that apply in England

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 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
  • Any planning applications or letters
  • Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
  • Photos of the land and its access

Your questions answered

Do you buy plots without planning permission?

Yes, usually subject to planning, so you're paid a price that reflects value with consent.

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

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

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 cover the villages around Yeadon?

Yes. Villages between Yeadon, Guiseley and Shipley often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
