Wanted in Chalfont Saint Peter

Development land wanted in Chalfont Saint Peter

Own land in Chalfont Saint Peter that could take new homes? We buy directly, with or without planning.

Chalfont Saint Peter lies about 18 miles south-east of Aylesbury in Buckinghamshire. We also cover Gerrards Cross, Rickmansworth, Amersham and the villages between them. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 87 miles from Chalfont Saint Peter, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

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.

Where an English council cannot show a five-year supply of housing land, or its Housing Delivery Test result falls below 75%, the August 2026 NPPF can give policy support to suitable housing outside settlement boundaries.

Some land in Buckinghamshire is designated Green Belt. If your land is within it, it may still qualify as grey belt or previously developed land under national policy, subject to the Golden Rules.
