How we arrive at a figure for land in Oxfordshire
Frontage width
Enough width for a home and its access shapes how much can be built.
Neighbours
Windows and gardens next door limit the size and position of the house.
Services
Infill sites usually have services close by, which helps value.
Local values
What new homes sell for in the street sets the ceiling.
Choosing how to sell
Gap sites in villages and towns often have a clear case for a new home, because they complete a street rather than extend it.

Planning and legal points for land in Oxfordshire
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.
Part of the gap belongs to a neighbour
Combining land can make a better plot. We can approach the neighbour with you.
Useful to send us
- A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
- Any planning applications or letters
- Details of any tenants or grazing agreements
- Photos of the land and its access
Common questions
Is infill easier to get permission for?
Often, because it continues the existing street pattern. Policy varies by council, especially in villages.
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 Oxfordshire?
Yes. We consider land across Oxfordshire, from Oxford to the smaller towns and villages. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, and we'll tell you either way.
