Sell an infill plot or gap site in Welshpool
Whether your land is in Welshpool itself or in the villages between Welshpool and Newtown, we'll look at it properly before making any offer.
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.

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 cover the villages around Welshpool?
Yes. Villages between Welshpool, Newtown and Oswestry often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
