Infill plots wanted in Kidlington
We are actively looking for infill plots in Kidlington and the surrounding area, with or without planning permission.

What infill plots we want near Kidlington
Infill gaps in Kidlington's established streets can be among the easiest small sites to bring forward when the design respects the neighbours. In Oxfordshire, Kidlington sits about 5 miles north of Oxford; Oxford and Bicester are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- 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
East West Rail and the science and technology economy around Oxford, Harwell and Culham drive demand for new homes. Flood risk from the Thames and Cherwell affects Oxford and nearby villages, while Bicester and Didcot have expanded substantially through planned growth.
Before we make an offer in Kidlington
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.
Services
Connections for drainage, water and power need to be reachable.
National policy in England now recognises "medium development" of 10 to 49 homes on sites up to 2.5 hectares, and asks councils to allocate at least 10% of their housing on sites of one hectare or less and a further 10% on sites of one to 2.5 hectares.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 57 miles from Kidlington, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Frequently asked in Oxfordshire
Will my neighbours be consulted?
Yes. The council consults neighbours on planning applications, and their comments are considered alongside policy.
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.
Is Kidlington too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 57 miles from Kidlington, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Kidlington assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
