Sell an infill plot or gap site in Daventry

For owners of infill plots in and around Daventry, we offer four ways to sell, from a clean outright purchase to deals that pay more once planning is granted.

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.

  • No commission: we're the buyer
  • No pressure to decide
  • Independent advice encouraged

Windows and gardens next door limit the size and position of the house.

Heritage

Listed neighbours or conservation areas mean careful design.

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.
