Infill plots we are looking for in Egham
Infill gaps in Egham's established streets can be among the easiest small sites to bring forward when the design respects the neighbours. Sitting about 14 miles north of Guildford, Egham is within Surrey, with Staines-upon-Thames and Chertsey close by.
- Side gardens with their own road frontage
- Corner plots within built-up areas
- Small yards or garages between houses
- Land with or without an earlier planning history
Heathland protection in the west of the county means many schemes contribute to mitigation for the Thames Basin Heaths, and flood risk from the Thames and Mole affects riverside towns. Stations on the lines into Waterloo and Victoria matter, as English planning policy now gives weight to locations near well-connected stations.
Checks we make on infill plots in Egham
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.
Trees
Protected trees or trees in a conservation area can limit what fits.
In England, the revised National Planning Policy Framework published on 17 August 2026 replaced the old "tilted balance" with new settlement policies: development within a settlement should normally be approved unless the harm substantially outweighs the benefits, while land outside a settlement can gain support in defined circumstances.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 96 miles from Egham, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Infill plots in Egham: 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.
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.
Can an agent introduce land in Egham to you?
Yes. Estate agents, land agents and planning consultants can introduce sites with the owner's consent. Any fee is agreed in writing before details are shared, confirmed by the owner in writing and paid only on completion.
Do I need to pay anything to have land in Egham assessed?
No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
