Wanted in Ashford

Infill plots wanted in Ashford

If you own infill plots in or around Ashford, we would like to hear about it. We buy directly and give a free, no-obligation appraisal.

An infill plot is a gap in an otherwise built-up frontage, between existing houses or buildings, where one or more new homes could fit. These small sites are often in sought-after streets and can be well suited to planning.

Is your land in Ashford the kind we want?

Around Ashford, infill plots are often side gardens or gaps left between older houses; the street's character usually sets the design. Sitting about 18 miles south-east of Maidstone, Ashford is within Kent, with Faversham and Canterbury close by.

  • Side gardens with their own road frontage
  • Corner plots within built-up areas
  • Small yards or garages between houses
  • Plots large enough for one or more homes with parking

Nutrient neutrality advice has affected the Stour catchment around Canterbury and Ashford because of the protected Stodmarsh wetlands. High Speed 1 stations and the M2, M20 and A2 corridors are a focus for growth, while coastal flood risk matters on the Thames and Swale estuaries and Romney Marsh.

Before we make an offer in Ashford

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.

Services

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

The August 2026 NPPF supports homes within reasonable walking distance (around 800 metres) of well-connected railway stations, with minimum densities of 35 homes per hectare, or 45 near higher-frequency stations.

Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 153 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land 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.

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.

Is Ashford too far from our Birmingham base?

No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 153 miles from Ashford, and we look at land right across England and Wales.

Do I need to pay anything to have land in Ashford assessed?

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