Sell development land in Llandudno
We consider development land in Llandudno and across Clwyd, from sites close to the LL30 postcode district out towards Colwyn Bay and Bethesda.
Most development land starts life as an ordinary field. What makes it valuable is where it sits: next to existing homes, close to a road, inside or near a settlement boundary. We assess those things first and give you a straight answer.
- Free appraisal and written offer
- No commission: we're the buyer

Land we're keen to see around Llandudno

How we arrive at a figure for land in Clwyd
Number of homes
Value follows how many homes the site can sensibly take once roads, open space and drainage are fitted in.
Planning obligations
Affordable housing, Section 106 contributions and, in some areas, CIL reduce what a buyer can pay for the land.
Local sale values
The price new homes will sell for nearby sets the ceiling on what the land is worth.
Ecology and trees
Protected species, ancient hedgerows and tree preservation orders can reduce the developable area.
Four routes to a sale
Outright purchase
Best where permission is already granted and the title is clean.
Subject-to-planning sale
Lets you lock in a price now that is paid once we secure permission.
Option agreements
Suits larger fields where the planning route may take several years.
Joint ventures
Worth discussing if you want a share of the finished development value.

What Wales's rules mean for your land
Planning framework
Planning in Wales follows Planning Policy Wales, the national plan Future Wales and the Local Development Plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. When plans are reviewed, landowners can put land forward as a candidate site.
Green belts and green wedges
England's grey belt rules don't apply in Wales. Planning Policy Wales sets out green belt and green wedge policy, which strongly restricts development.
Biodiversity
Wales doesn't use England's 10% net gain metric. Planning Policy Wales expects development to deliver a net benefit for biodiversity.
Common problems, and how we handle them
The site has been refused planning before
A refusal tells us what the council objected to. We read the decision notice and judge whether a different scheme could answer it.
The access is over someone else's land
We check the title for rights of way and, where needed, factor in the cost of buying or negotiating access.
Useful to send us
- A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
- Your title number, if you know it
- Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
- Photos of the land and its access
Your questions answered
How do I know if my land is development land?
Ask three questions: does it sit next to existing homes, can a car get onto it safely from a public road, and is it outside the worst flood risk? If the answer to all three is yes, it is worth an appraisal. We will tell you honestly if we don't think homes are achievable.
Will I pay any fees to you?
No. We are the buyer, not an agent, so there is no commission. You will normally pay your own solicitor unless we agree otherwise in writing.
Should I get my own valuation?
We recommend it. An independent RICS valuer or land agent can tell you whether our offer is fair, and you are under no obligation to accept.
Do you cover the villages around Llandudno?
Yes. Villages between Llandudno, Colwyn Bay and Bethesda often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
