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 Ebbw Vale
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.
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.
Our base is in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 77 miles away, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Questions owners in Ebbw Vale ask
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.
Do small infill sites need biodiversity net gain?
In England, from 6 August 2026 most non-major sites of 0.2 hectares or less are exempt from mandatory BNG, unless priority habitat is affected. Wales uses a different approach.
How quickly can you look at a site in Ebbw Vale?
For most sites we can give an initial view once we have the location and a plan. Detailed checks follow if the land looks suitable.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Ebbw Vale assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
