The allocated and promoted land that interests us around Flitwick
We are interested in land around Flitwick at any plan stage, from a first submission to an adopted allocation. In Bedfordshire, Flitwick sits about 9 miles south of Bedford; Ampthill and Kempston are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Land identified in a draft plan or housing land availability assessment
- Sites where the current promoter's agreement has ended
- Parts of larger allocations owned separately
- Land in a neighbourhood plan allocation
The M1, A1, Midland Main Line and East Coast Main Line all run through Bedfordshire, and planning policy in England now gives extra weight to well-connected locations near stations. Villages along these corridors, and older commercial sites in Luton, Bedford and Dunstable, are typical places where smaller housing sites emerge.
What usually makes or breaks it
Allocation requirements
Allocation policies often set numbers, access, infrastructure and design expectations.
Shared allocations
Where several owners hold one allocation, collaboration and equalisation matter.
Evidence base
Councils expect technical evidence on deliverability.
National policy in England now recognises "medium development" of 10 to 49 homes on sites up to 2.5 hectares, and asks councils to allocate at least 10% of their housing on sites of one hectare or less and a further 10% on sites of one to 2.5 hectares.
Some land in Bedfordshire 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.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 71 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Your questions answered

No. A submission only means the council will assess it. Good technical evidence and a clear access plan improve the chances.

Yes. We buy allocated and promoted land in Flitwick and throughout Bedfordshire, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.
