Infill plots we are looking for in Edgware
Infill gaps in Edgware's established streets can be among the easiest small sites to bring forward when the design respects the neighbours. Sitting about 10 miles north-west of central London, Edgware is within Greater London, with Borehamwood and Harrow close by.
- Gaps in a street frontage between houses or other buildings
- Side gardens with their own road frontage
- Small yards or garages between houses
- Plots large enough for one or more homes with parking
London planning is shaped by both the London Plan and borough plans, with higher densities expected near stations and town centres. Small sites, including garden land, yards and redundant commercial premises close to Underground, Overground, Elizabeth line or national rail stations, are the most common route to new homes in the outer areas.
Before we make an offer in Edgware
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.
Services
Connections for drainage, water and power need to be reachable.
In England, the revised National Planning Policy Framework published on 17 August 2026 replaced the old "tilted balance" with new settlement policies: development within a settlement should normally be approved unless the harm substantially outweighs the benefits, while land outside a settlement can gain support in defined circumstances.
Parts of Greater London 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 95 miles away, and we buy land throughout 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.
Do you buy infill plots in Edgware?
Yes. We buy infill plots in Edgware and throughout Greater London, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.
Is Edgware too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 95 miles from Edgware, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
