Checks we make on infill plots in Carterton
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.
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.

Frequently asked in Oxfordshire
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 Carterton too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 56 miles from Carterton, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
How quickly can you look at a site in Carterton?
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.
