Is your land near Brixton a good fit?

  • Sites within a settlement boundary
  • Former garages, workshops or yards in a street
  • Sites with an old outbuilding to demolish
  • Village plots where small-scale infill is supported by policy

Infill development is supported in many local plans, especially within settlement boundaries. We check how your council treats it.

The things that move our offer

Frontage width

Enough width for a home and its access shapes how much can be built.

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.

Ways to sell this land

Outright purchase

Simple where permission already exists.

Subject-to-planning sale

The usual route for unconsented gap sites.

Option agreements

Seldom needed for single infill plots.

Joint ventures

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

From first call to completion

    With the main figures behind it, so your adviser can check it.

  4. Solicitors complete the sale

    Exchange and complete, or exchange now and complete when planning is granted.

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.

Heritage

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

Common problems, and how we handle them

Part of the gap belongs to a neighbour

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

There's an old right of way across it

We check the deeds and the public rights of way map before pricing.

Useful to send us

  • A rough size, in acres or hectares
  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
  • How soon you'd ideally like to sell

Common questions

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.

Do I pay anything for your appraisal?

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