Infill plots we are looking for in Chertsey
Infill gaps in Chertsey's established streets can be among the easiest small sites to bring forward when the design respects the neighbours. Chertsey lies about 11 miles north of Guildford in Surrey. We also cover Weybridge, Staines-upon-Thames, Egham and the villages between them.
- Gaps in a street frontage between houses or other buildings
- Corner plots within built-up areas
- Plots large enough for one or more homes with parking
- Land with or without an earlier planning history
Surrey is a county of commuter towns, including Woking, Guildford, Epsom, Reigate, Redhill, Camberley, Staines-upon-Thames and Farnham, and many villages. Most of the county is Metropolitan Green Belt, and the Surrey Hills and High Weald National Landscapes cover much of the south. Previously developed land, infill plots, garden and backland sites and grey belt are therefore central to housing supply, with larger sites usually allocated through local plans.
Before we make an offer in Chertsey
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.
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.

Infill plots in Chertsey: 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.
Is Chertsey too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 100 miles from Chertsey, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
How quickly can you look at a site in Chertsey?
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.
