Infill plots we are looking for in Aberystwyth
We look for infill plots across Aberystwyth and the surrounding villages, particularly where there is room for parking off the road. In Dyfed, Aberystwyth sits about 40 miles north of Carmarthen; Llandrindod Wells and Newtown are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Gaps in a street frontage between houses or other buildings
- Side gardens with their own road frontage
- Corner plots within built-up areas
- Plots large enough for one or more homes with parking
Housing growth in Dyfed is planned through Local Development Plans, with land submitted at the candidate site stage. Llanelli, Carmarthen and the Haven towns see most demand, while flood risk under TAN 15 matters on the Loughor estuary, the coast and river valleys such as the Tywi.
Checks we make on infill plots in Aberystwyth
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.
Parking and access
A safe access and enough parking can decide small schemes.
Parts of Wales lie in river catchments where phosphate levels in protected rivers affect new housing, so drainage and nutrient solutions can be an early question.
