Is your land in Carterton the kind we want?
We are interested in land around Carterton at any plan stage, from a first submission to an adopted allocation. Carterton is in Oxfordshire, about 14 miles west of Oxford. Nearby places include Witney, Kidlington and Oxford.
- Land allocated for housing in an adopted plan
- 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
Oxfordshire combines the city of Oxford with towns such as Banbury, Bicester, Witney, Abingdon, Didcot, Carterton and Kidlington and many villages. Green Belt surrounds Oxford, and the Cotswolds, Chilterns and North Wessex Downs National Landscapes cover much of the countryside. Typical sites include edge-of-town extensions, previously developed land, farm buildings and infill plots, with grey belt now relevant on parts of the Oxford fringe.
Before we make an offer in Carterton
Plan stage
An adopted allocation carries more weight than a draft one or a call-for-sites submission.
Allocation requirements
Allocation policies often set numbers, access, infrastructure and design expectations.
Evidence base
Councils expect technical evidence on deliverability.
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 Oxfordshire 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.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 56 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Allocated and promoted land in Carterton: common questions
Is there an equivalent of a call for sites in Wales?
Yes. Welsh councils run candidate site stages when preparing or reviewing their Local Development Plans.
Do you buy part of an allocation?
Yes. Where an allocation is split between owners, we can buy or take an option on one part and work with the others.
Is Carterton too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 56 miles from Carterton, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Can an agent introduce land in Carterton to you?
Yes. Estate agents, land agents and planning consultants can introduce sites with the owner's consent. Any fee is agreed in writing before details are shared, confirmed by the owner in writing and paid only on completion.
