Sell an infill plot or gap site in Leicestershire
We buy infill plots across Leicestershire, including around Leicester, Loughborough and Hinckley. You deal with the buyer directly and there's no commission to pay.
Gap sites in villages and towns often have a clear case for a new home, because they complete a street rather than extend it.

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.
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.

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.
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.
Do I pay anything for your appraisal?
No. Our appraisal and offer are free and there's no obligation.
Do you buy land in Leicestershire?
Yes. We consider land across Leicestershire, from Leicester to the smaller towns and villages. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, and we'll tell you either way.
