  • Long rear gardens backing onto a lane or road
  • Several neighbouring gardens that could be combined
  • Gardens where similar plots nearby have gained permission
  • 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 the West Midlands

Policy on garden land

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

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.

Ways to sell this land

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.

What England's rules mean for your land

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

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

  • The address or postcode
  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Photos of the land and its access

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.

Who pays for the planning application?

On a subject-to-planning deal, we do.

Do you buy land in Willenhall?

Yes. We consider land in and around Willenhall and across the West Midlands. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
