Infill plots wanted in Flint
Development Land Wanted buys infill plots in Flint and right across England and Wales. Owners and agents are both welcome.
If you own a gap between buildings on a road, it may be an infill plot. We look at how new homes would sit alongside the neighbours, how they would be reached, and whether trees or drainage affect the space.

Is your land in Flint the kind we want?
Around Flint, infill plots are often side gardens or gaps left between older houses; the street's character usually sets the design. Flint lies about 5 miles north of Mold in Clwyd. We also cover Holywell, Mold, Buckley and the villages between them.
- Gaps in a street frontage between houses or other buildings
- Side gardens with their own road frontage
- Corner plots within built-up areas
- Small yards or garages between houses
The A55 coast road and the Wrexham to Bidston and North Wales Coast rail lines link the main towns with Chester and Merseyside. Coastal flood risk under TAN 15 is significant around Rhyl and Prestatyn, and phosphate limits in parts of the River Dee catchment have affected some schemes.
What decides whether a site in Flint works
Character of the street
New homes need to suit the building line, height and spacing of the street.
Neighbours' amenity
Overlooking, loss of light and outlook are the issues planners weigh most often.
Services
Connections for drainage, water and power need to be reachable.
In Wales a planning permission usually lasts five years before work must begin, and land purchases are subject to Land Transaction Tax rather than Stamp Duty Land Tax.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 70 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Questions owners in Flint ask
How wide does an infill plot need to be?
There is no fixed figure; it depends on the street. A plot that allows a home similar in width to its neighbours, with space to the sides, is a good start.
Do small infill sites need biodiversity net gain?
In England, from 6 August 2026 most non-major sites of 0.2 hectares or less are exempt from mandatory BNG, unless priority habitat is affected. Wales uses a different approach.
