Sell an infill plot or gap site in Heston

We consider infill plots in Heston and across Greater London, from sites close to the TW5 postcode district out towards Hounslow and Isleworth.

Gap sites in villages and towns often have a clear case for a new home, because they complete a street rather than extend it.

Common problems, and how we handle them

There's an old right of way across it

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

  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map

  • Any planning applications or letters

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.

Will you buy a gap site with a derelict garage on it?

Yes. We'll allow for demolition and any clean-up.

Do you cover the villages around Heston?

Yes. Villages between Heston, Hounslow and Isleworth often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
