What infill plots we want near Chessington

Infill gaps in Chessington's established streets can be among the easiest small sites to bring forward when the design respects the neighbours. In Greater London, Chessington sits about 13 miles south-west of central London; Ewell and Epsom are its nearest neighbours on our list.

  • Corner plots within built-up areas
  • Small yards or garages between houses
  • Plots large enough for one or more homes with parking
  • Land with or without an earlier planning history

Outer London, from Romford and Bexley to Uxbridge, Barnet, Croydon and Sutton, contains most of the capital's remaining land opportunities. Around the edge, the Metropolitan Green Belt and Metropolitan Open Land protect open space, and a small part of the Kent Downs National Landscape lies in the south-east. Sites usually come forward as small infill plots, garage courts, backland, former commercial buildings and occasional grey belt land on the urban fringe.

Before we make an offer in Chessington

Character of the street

New homes need to suit the building line, height and spacing of the street.

Trees

Protected trees or trees in a conservation area can limit what fits.

Services

Connections for drainage, water and power need to be reachable.

The Planning and Infrastructure Act 2025 introduced Environmental Delivery Plans and a Nature Restoration Levy in England, which over time may offer an alternative to site-by-site mitigation for some environmental issues.

We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 107 miles from Chessington, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Your questions answered

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.

Will my neighbours be consulted?

Yes. The council consults neighbours on planning applications, and their comments are considered alongside policy.

Which planning rules apply to land in Chessington?

As Chessington 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 Chessington assessed?

No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
