Sell part of your garden in Daventry

For owners of garden land in and around Daventry, we offer four ways to sell, from a clean outright purchase to deals that pay more once planning is granted.

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.

  • No commission: we're the buyer
  • Figures explained, so you can check them
  • Independent advice encouraged

Land we're keen to see around Daventry

  • Wide side gardens on corner plots
  • Several neighbouring gardens that could be combined
  • Gardens with room for access past the existing house
  • Overgrown gardens and orchards no longer used

A large garden can be a valuable plot. The key questions are access, the effect on your own home and neighbours, and local planning policy on garden development.

How we arrive at a figure for land in Northamptonshire

Effect on your house

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

Trees

Protected or large trees can limit the plot.

Combined sites

Several gardens together can be worth more than each sold separately.

Plot size

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

Planning and legal points for land in Northamptonshire

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

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

  • The address or postcode
  • 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.

Do I need planning permission to sell garden land?

Not to sell it, but planning permission is what gives the land its value, so we usually buy subject to planning.

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.
