Is your land in Wiltshire a good fit?

  • Plots for one to a handful of homes
  • Plots with a road frontage or a private drive
  • Plots with full or outline planning permission
  • Plots where a previous permission has lapsed
  • Corner plots and end-of-terrace side plots

If you've been trying to sell a plot to self-builders without success, a direct sale to a builder can be simpler and quicker.

What affects the price

Permission

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

Access

Visibility splays and parking need room on smaller plots.

Local values

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

Self-build exemptions

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

From first call to completion

  1. Send us the address

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

  2. We check it properly

    Title, planning history, access, flood maps and local policy.

  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 Wiltshire

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.

Awkward details we deal with

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.

Useful to send us

  • A rough size, in acres or hectares
  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Photos of the land and its access
  • How soon you'd ideally like to sell

What people ask us about building plots

How much is a building plot worth?

It depends mostly on what the finished home would sell for, minus building costs and a profit margin. We'll show you how our figure is reached.

Can I sell a plot in my garden?

Yes. See our page on garden land, which covers the extra points to consider when splitting a garden.

Do I need to clear the plot before selling?

No. We buy sites as they are.

Do you buy land in Wiltshire?

Yes. We consider land across Wiltshire, from Swindon to the smaller towns and villages. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, and we'll tell you either way.
