What makes infill plots near Salisbury worth an offer

  • Sites within a settlement boundary
  • Former garages, workshops or yards in a street
  • Overgrown plots with a pavement frontage
  • 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.

How we arrive at a figure for land in Wiltshire

Frontage width

Enough width for a home and its access shapes how much can be built.

Street character

Design must fit the street, especially in conservation areas.

Neighbours

Windows and gardens next door limit the size and position of the house.

Local values

What new homes sell for in the street sets the ceiling.

Four routes to a sale

Outright purchase

Simple where permission already exists.

Subject-to-planning sale

The usual route for unconsented gap sites.

Option agreements

Seldom needed for single infill plots.

Joint ventures

Possible for a pair of homes if you'd like a share.

Planning and legal points for land in Wiltshire

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

Part of the gap belongs to a neighbour

Combining land can make a better plot. We can approach the neighbour with you.

There's an old right of way across it

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

Useful to send us

  • The address or postcode
  • A plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Photos of the land and its access
  • How soon you'd ideally like to sell
