Sell part of your garden in Wembley
If you want to sell part of your garden in Wembley, you can deal with the buyer directly. We look at the land, explain what it's worth and why, and leave the decision with you.
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.
- Free appraisal and written offer
- Figures explained, so you can check them

Land around Wembley
From Wembley, it's 2 miles to Harrow and 3 miles to Greenford. We buy land across that whole stretch of Greater London, not only within the town.
Land is scarce and mostly brownfield. The outer boroughs contain Metropolitan Green Belt and metropolitan open land, both closely protected.

Land we're keen to see around Wembley
- Long rear gardens backing onto a lane or road

Some of the best small sites are two or three long gardens combined. We can talk to you and your neighbours together if that helps.
The things that move our offer
Effect on your house
Losing garden space can affect your home's value, which we take into account with you.
Neighbour amenity
Privacy, light and outlook for neighbours shape what can be built.
Trees
Protected or large trees can limit the plot.
Combined sites
Several gardens together can be worth more than each sold separately.
Four routes to a sale
Outright purchase
Suits garden plots that already have planning permission.
Subject-to-planning sale
The usual route for garden land: we complete when permission is granted.
Option agreements
Useful when several neighbours' gardens are being assembled.
Joint ventures
Possible if you'd like a share of the new home's value.

Planning and legal points for land in Greater London
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.
When the land isn't straightforward
You're worried about losing privacy
We can agree a design that protects your home, and conditions in the contract can set limits.
Neighbours may object
Objections are judged against policy. A careful design reduces genuine impact.
Useful to send us
- Any planning applications or letters
- Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
- Photos of the land and its access
- How soon you'd ideally like to sell
Your questions answered
Will selling part of my garden reduce my home's value?
It can, especially if the garden becomes small or overlooked. We'll talk this through so you can weigh it against the plot price.
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.
Who pays for the planning application?
On a subject-to-planning deal, we do.
Do you buy land in Wembley?
Yes. We consider land in and around Wembley and across Greater London. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
