What we look for around Sittingbourne

  • Plots between two houses in a village or town
  • Sites within a settlement boundary
  • Overgrown plots with a pavement frontage
  • Sites with an old outbuilding to demolish

If you own an overgrown gap between houses, it may be worth much more as a plot than as a garden or yard.

What decides the value of infill plots near Sittingbourne

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.

Common problems, and how we handle them

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.

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.

Do I pay anything for your appraisal?

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

Do you buy land in Sittingbourne?

Yes. We consider land in and around Sittingbourne and across Kent. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
