Sell an infill plot or gap site in Colwyn Bay
We buy infill plots across Clwyd. In Colwyn Bay, as everywhere, the offer depends on the land itself: its access, its planning prospects and what can sensibly be built.
Gap sites in villages and towns often have a clear case for a new home, because they complete a street rather than extend it.
- Free appraisal and written offer
- No pressure to decide
- Independent advice encouraged

Common questions
What is an infill plot?
A small gap in an otherwise built-up frontage, usually between two existing buildings, that a new home could fill.
Is infill easier to get permission for?
Often, because it continues the existing street pattern. Policy varies by council, especially in villages.
How wide does an infill plot need to be?
There's no fixed width. It depends on the house type, the street and whether parking is needed at the front.
Do you cover the villages around Colwyn Bay?
Yes. Villages between Colwyn Bay, Llandudno and Rhyl often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
