Is your land in Hounslow the kind we want?
Around Hounslow, infill plots are often side gardens or gaps left between older houses; the street's character usually sets the design. Hounslow is in Greater London, about 10 miles west of central London. Nearby places include Richmond, Feltham and Southall.

- 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 Hounslow
Character of the street
New homes need to suit the building line, height and spacing of the street.
Parking and access
A safe access and enough parking can decide small schemes.
Trees
Protected trees or trees in a conservation area can limit what fits.
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.

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.

Often, yes. We make sure access, boundaries and services are set out so your own home is protected.

Which planning rules apply to land in Hounslow?
