Sell part of your garden in Kingston upon Hull

We consider garden land in Kingston upon Hull and across the East Riding of Yorkshire, from sites close to the HU1 postcode district out towards Hedon and Beverley.

Garden land is part of a residential garden sold for one or more new homes, often called a backland or garden plot. Long gardens backing onto a lane, or several neighbouring gardens combined, can make good sites if access and neighbours' privacy can be handled well.

The things that move our offer

Access

A separate access onto a lane is ideal; access past your house needs enough width.

Policy on garden land

Some councils resist garden development unless it fits the character of the area.

Effect on your house

Losing garden space can affect your home's value, which we take into account with you.

Plot size

Value follows the size and type of home the plot can take.

    Exchange and complete, or exchange now and complete when planning is granted.

Planning and legal points for land in the East Riding of Yorkshire

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.

Garden land

Councils judge garden plots against local plan policies on character, design and neighbours' amenity. The August 2026 revision of national policy adds support for some development on residential curtilage land, within limits.

Land registration

Land in England is registered with HM Land Registry. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold, which your solicitor arranges.

Awkward details we deal with

You're worried about losing privacy

We can agree a design that protects your home, and conditions in the contract can set limits.

Your mortgage lender has a charge on the whole property

Your lender needs to agree to release the plot. Your solicitor arranges this.

Useful to send us

  • A rough size, in acres or hectares
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Photos of the land and its access
  • How soon you'd ideally like to sell

Your questions answered

Can I sell part of my garden?

Yes. Your solicitor will divide the title, and your mortgage lender will need to agree to release the land if it has a charge over it.

What if my neighbour wants to sell too?

Combined sites often work better. We can make offers to both and structure the deal so each owner is treated fairly.

Can you build the house while I still live next door?

Yes. Construction rules, working hours and site management keep disruption down, and we'll agree access arrangements with you.

Can you visit land near Kingston upon Hull?

Yes. Once we've looked at the title and planning position, we arrange a site visit if the land looks suitable. Send the address or postcode to start.
