The farmland and paddocks that interests us around Aylesbury
Fields that wrap around the edges of Aylesbury and its neighbouring villages are the farmland we most want to talk about. Aylesbury is the county town of Buckinghamshire. Nearby places we also cover include Leighton Buzzard, Berkhamsted and Chesham.
- Fields and paddocks adjoining a town, village or suburb
- Land with road frontage or a farm track to a road
- Parcels from a few acres to whole holdings
- Farmland where the owner wants to keep farming meanwhile
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.
What usually makes or breaks it
Tenancies
Agricultural tenancies affect when vacant possession can be given; we check the type and terms.
Farm schemes
Environmental and payment schemes may have obligations to unwind or agree.
Landscape
Protected landscapes and sensitive views limit what may be acceptable.
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.
Parts of Buckinghamshire are Green Belt, though not every town has any nearby. We check early whether a site is inside it and, if so, whether a grey belt or previously developed land case could apply.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 69 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Frequently asked in Buckinghamshire
Can I keep farming while you pursue planning?
Yes. Under an option or a conditional contract the land normally stays in your hands, and in use, until completion.

Anything from a single paddock to larger holdings. Smaller parcels next to villages can be very suitable.
Which planning rules apply to land in Aylesbury?
As Aylesbury is in England, national policy comes from the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026. Local policies in the council's development plan also apply.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Aylesbury assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
