Development land wanted in Wimbledon
Own land in Wimbledon that could take new homes? We buy directly, with or without planning.
Wimbledon is in Greater London, about 7 miles south-west of central London. Nearby places include Kingston upon Thames, Sutton and Richmond. Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 106 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.
Outer London, from Romford and Bexley to Uxbridge, Barnet, Croydon and Sutton, contains most of the capital's remaining land opportunities. Around the edge, the Metropolitan Green Belt and Metropolitan Open Land protect open space, and a small part of the Kent Downs National Landscape lies in the south-east. Sites usually come forward as small infill plots, garage courts, backland, former commercial buildings and occasional grey belt land on the urban fringe.
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.
Some land in Greater London 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.
