Is your land in Warrington the kind we want?

Cheshire's eastern edge rises into the Peak District National Park, and the Dee and Mersey estuaries bring flood and habitat considerations. Former industrial and chemical land around Northwich, Winsford and Runcorn, and village sites near stations on the Crewe and Manchester lines, are typical development opportunities.
What usually makes or breaks it
Plan stage
An adopted allocation carries more weight than a draft one or a call-for-sites submission.
Existing agreements
Land may already be under option or promotion; we check for exclusivity.
Shared allocations
Where several owners hold one allocation, collaboration and equalisation matter.
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.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 65 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

My land was under an option that expired. Can you take over?
Yes, if the earlier agreement has properly ended. We will want to see it to confirm there is no continuing exclusivity.

Yes. Where an allocation is split between owners, we can buy or take an option on one part and work with the others.

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