Questions from landowners near Walton-on-Thames

Is infill easier to get permission for?

Often, because it continues the existing street pattern. Policy varies by council, especially in villages.

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.

Do you cover the villages around Walton-on-Thames?

Yes. Villages between Walton-on-Thames, Sunbury-on-Thames and Esher often have the kind of edge-of-settlement land we're looking for.
