  • Plots between two houses in a village or town
  • Former garages, workshops or yards in a street
  • Overgrown plots with a pavement frontage
  • Sites with an old outbuilding to demolish

What affects the price

Local plan policy

Some rural policies allow infill of one or two homes in small villages.

Services

Infill sites usually have services close by, which helps value.

Heritage

Listed neighbours or conservation areas mean careful design.

Local values

What new homes sell for in the street sets the ceiling.

Four routes to a sale

Outright purchase

Subject-to-planning sale

The usual route for unconsented gap sites.

Option agreements

Joint ventures

Possible for a pair of homes if you'd like a share.

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.

Heritage

Listed buildings and conservation areas are managed with Historic England and the council's conservation team.

When the land isn't straightforward

The plot is in a conservation area

Good design is essential in conservation areas. We'll design to the street.

Part of the gap belongs to a neighbour

Combining land can make a better plot. We can approach the neighbour with you.

Useful to send us

  • A rough size, in acres or hectares
  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Any planning applications or letters
  • How soon you'd ideally like to sell

Common questions

Is infill easier to get permission for?

Often, because it continues the existing street pattern. Policy varies by council, especially in villages.

Can you check the conservation area rules for me?

Yes. We look at the council's conservation area appraisal as part of our assessment.

Do I pay anything for your appraisal?

No. Our appraisal and offer are free and there's no obligation.
