How we arrive at a figure for land in Northumberland

Street character

Design must fit the street, especially in conservation areas.

Local plan policy

Some rural policies allow infill of one or two homes in small villages.

Neighbours

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

Local values

What new homes sell for in the street sets the ceiling.

Four routes to a sale

Outright purchase

Simple where permission already exists.

Subject-to-planning sale

The usual route for unconsented gap sites.

Option agreements

Seldom needed for single infill plots.

Joint ventures

Possible for a pair of homes if you'd like a share.

What happens next

    A postcode, a plan or a what3words location is enough to start.

    With the main figures behind it, so your adviser can check it.

    Exchange and complete, or exchange now and complete when planning is granted.

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

The plot is in a conservation area

Good design is essential in conservation areas. We'll design to the street.

There's an old right of way across it

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

Useful to send us

  • A rough size, in acres or hectares
  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Photos of the land and its access

Questions from landowners near Prudhoe

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.

Can you check the conservation area rules for me?

Yes. We look at the council's conservation area appraisal as part of our assessment.

Do you buy land in Prudhoe?

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