Sell an infill plot or gap site in Canary Wharf
If you want to sell an infill plot or gap site in Canary Wharf, 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.
- Free appraisal and written offer
- No pressure to decide
- Independent advice encouraged

What affects the price

Neighbours
Windows and gardens next door limit the size and position of the house.
Services
Infill sites usually have services close by, which helps value.

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
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.
