Sell part of your garden in Garston
We buy garden land across Merseyside. In Garston, as everywhere, the offer depends on the land itself: its access, its planning prospects and what can sensibly be built.
Selling the end of your garden lets you stay in your home and release capital. We'll tell you whether a plot is realistic before you spend anything.

What we look for around Garston
- Long rear gardens backing onto a lane or road
- Wide side gardens on corner plots
- Gardens with room for access past the existing house
- Overgrown gardens and orchards no longer used
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
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.
Neighbour amenity
Privacy, light and outlook for neighbours shape what can be built.
Choosing how to sell
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.

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.
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.
Common problems, and how we handle them
Your mortgage lender has a charge on the whole property
Your lender needs to agree to release the plot. Your solicitor arranges this.
Neighbours may object
Objections are judged against policy. A careful design reduces genuine impact.
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
Common questions
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.
Who pays for the planning application?
On a subject-to-planning deal, we do.
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.
