Sell an infill plot or gap site in Powys

We buy infill plots across Powys, including around Newtown, Brecon and Welshpool. 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.

Land we're keen to see in Powys

  • Plots between two houses in a village or town
  • Sites within a settlement boundary
  • Former garages, workshops or yards in a street
  • Sites with an old outbuilding to demolish
  • Village plots where small-scale infill is supported by policy

If you own an overgrown gap between houses, it may be worth much more as a plot than as a garden or yard.

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

Your questions answered

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 Powys?

Yes. We consider land across Powys, from Newtown to the smaller towns and villages. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, and we'll tell you either way.
