Infill plots we are looking for in Stourbridge
We look for infill plots across Stourbridge and the surrounding villages, particularly where there is room for parking off the road. Stourbridge is in the West Midlands, about 10 miles west of Birmingham. Nearby places include Brierley Hill, Kingswinford and Dudley.
- Gaps in a street frontage between houses or other buildings
- Side gardens with their own road frontage
- Corner plots within built-up areas
- Plots large enough for one or more homes with parking
Metro tram extensions, the High Speed 2 stations at Curzon Street and Interchange, and suburban rail lines are a focus for higher-density homes. Former industrial land often needs contamination and ground investigation, and the Black Country's mining and limestone legacy means ground stability checks are common.
Checks we make on infill plots in Stourbridge
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.
Services
Connections for drainage, water and power need to be reachable.
The August 2026 NPPF supports homes within reasonable walking distance (around 800 metres) of well-connected railway stations, with minimum densities of 35 homes per hectare, or 45 near higher-frequency stations.
Parts of the West Midlands are Green Belt, though not every town has any nearby. We check early whether a site is inside it and, if so, whether a grey belt or previously developed land case could apply.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, close to Stourbridge, and we buy land throughout England and Wales.

Questions owners in Stourbridge ask
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.
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.
