What makes infill plots near Kirkby-in-Ashfield worth an offer

  • Gaps in a continuous street frontage
  • Overgrown plots with a pavement frontage
  • Sites with an old outbuilding to demolish
  • Village plots where small-scale infill is supported by policy

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