Development land wanted in Buckinghamshire

Selling land in Buckinghamshire? We buy directly and welcome local agents.

Buckinghamshire runs from Milton Keynes in the north, through Aylesbury and the Vale, to High Wycombe, Amersham and the Chiltern towns in the south. The southern half is largely Metropolitan Green Belt and much of it lies in the Chilterns National Landscape, so sites there tend to be small, infill or previously developed. The north and the Aylesbury area see more edge-of-town greenfield land, farmland and strategic sites promoted through plan-making.

What land do we want in Buckinghamshire?

The planned East West Rail route and the existing lines into Marylebone and Euston shape where growth is directed in Buckinghamshire. Village infill plots, redundant farm buildings and garden land are frequent in the rural parishes, while Milton Keynes and Aylesbury attract larger edge-of-town and regeneration sites.

The August 2026 NPPF supports homes within reasonable walking distance (around 800 metres) of well-connected railway stations, with minimum densities of 35 homes per hectare, or 45 near higher-frequency stations.

English councils keep brownfield land registers, and some previously developed sites can be granted permission in principle, a quicker way of establishing whether housing is acceptable before technical details are settled.

Parts of Buckinghamshire are Green Belt, though not every town has any nearby. We check early whether a site is inside it and, if so, whether a grey belt or previously developed land case could apply.

Parts of Buckinghamshire fall within Chilterns National Landscape. Protected landscapes carry strong policy protection, so land in or next to them needs particularly careful assessment.

Land we want in Buckinghamshire

Land without planning permission

For land on the edges of Aylesbury with no consent yet, the first questions are access, flood risk and how the council's current plan treats the area.

Brownfield land

In Aylesbury, the brownfield sites we look at are often tucked behind main roads or alongside older housing, close to services.

Infill plots

We look for infill plots across Aylesbury and the surrounding villages, particularly where there is room for parking off the road.

Farmland and paddocks
