What makes infill plots near Haverhill worth an offer
- Gaps in a continuous street frontage
- Plots between two houses in a village or town
- Sites within a settlement boundary
- Overgrown plots with a pavement frontage
If you own an overgrown gap between houses, it may be worth much more as a plot than as a garden or yard.

What England's rules mean for your land
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.

Your questions answered
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.
