Infill plots we are looking for in Blackwood
We look for infill plots across Blackwood and the surrounding villages, particularly where there is room for parking off the road. Blackwood lies about 8 miles west of Cwmbran in Gwent. We also cover Bargoed, Gelligaer, Newbridge and the villages between them.
- Side gardens with their own road frontage
- Corner plots within built-up areas
- Plots large enough for one or more homes with parking
- Land with or without an earlier planning history
Newport's adopted Local Development Plan designates a green belt between Newport and Cardiff, and Future Wales anticipates a wider green belt for south-east Wales once a regional plan sets its boundary. Newport and Cwmbran see the strongest demand, while Bannau Brycheiniog National Park and the Wye Valley National Landscape cover northern and eastern parts of the area.
Before we make an offer in Blackwood
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.
Trees
Protected trees or trees in a conservation area can limit what fits.
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.

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.
Can I sell a plot next to my own house?
Often, yes. We make sure access, boundaries and services are set out so your own home is protected.

Yes. We buy infill plots in Blackwood and throughout Gwent, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.
Is Blackwood too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 82 miles from Blackwood, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
