Sell an infill plot or gap site in Battersea
If you want to sell an infill plot or gap site in Battersea, you can deal with the buyer directly. We look at the land, explain what it's worth and why, and leave the decision with you.
An infill plot is a small gap in an otherwise built-up street frontage, between existing homes or buildings. Because it continues an established pattern of development, an infill plot is often one of the more straightforward small sites to get permission for.

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.
Awkward details we deal with

Your questions answered
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.
Will you buy a gap site with a derelict garage on it?
Yes. We'll allow for demolition and any clean-up.
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 you buy land in Battersea?
Yes. We consider land in and around Battersea and across Greater London. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
