Kent ranges from the Medway towns, Dartford and Gravesend on the Thames to Maidstone, Ashford, Canterbury, Tunbridge Wells and the coastal towns of Margate, Ramsgate, Folkestone and Dover. West Kent is largely Metropolitan Green Belt, while the Kent Downs and High Weald National Landscapes cover much of the countryside. Sites typically include edge-of-town fields, orchards and farmland, farm buildings, infill plots and brownfield land in the towns.
Checks we make on infill plots in Broadstairs
Character of the street
New homes need to suit the building line, height and spacing of the street.
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.
The Planning and Infrastructure Act 2025 introduced Environmental Delivery Plans and a Nature Restoration Levy in England, which over time may offer an alternative to site-by-site mitigation for some environmental issues.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 165 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Infill plots in Broadstairs: common questions
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.

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.
Which planning rules apply to land in Broadstairs?
