Wanted in Wiltshire

Infill plots wanted in Wiltshire

If you own infill plots in or around Wiltshire, we would like to hear about it. We buy directly and give a free, no-obligation appraisal.

An infill plot is a gap in an otherwise built-up frontage, between existing houses or buildings, where one or more new homes could fit. These small sites are often in sought-after streets and can be well suited to planning.

Is your land in Wiltshire the kind we want?

Wiltshire includes Swindon, Salisbury, Trowbridge, Chippenham, Melksham, Devizes, Calne, Warminster and Westbury, with many villages and much open downland. Green Belt from the Bristol and Bath area reaches the west of the county, and the North Wessex Downs, Cranborne Chase and Cotswolds National Landscapes and part of the New Forest National Park cover large areas. Typical sites include edge-of-town fields, farm buildings, village infill and former military or industrial land.

  • Gaps in a street frontage between houses or other buildings
  • Side gardens with their own road frontage
  • Small yards or garages between houses
  • Land with or without an earlier planning history

Salisbury Plain and Stonehenge bring military and World Heritage considerations, and nutrient neutrality advice has affected the River Avon catchment around Salisbury. The M4 corridor around Swindon and Chippenham and the rail lines through Westbury and Trowbridge focus much of the area's growth.

Checks we make on infill plots in Wiltshire

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.

Since 6 August 2026, non-major development on sites of 0.2 hectares or less in England has generally been exempt from mandatory biodiversity net gain, unless priority habitat is affected. That makes many small sites simpler to bring forward.

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.

Frequently asked in Wiltshire

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.

Will my neighbours be consulted?

Yes. The council consults neighbours on planning applications, and their comments are considered alongside policy.

Do you buy infill plots in Wiltshire?

Yes. We buy infill plots in Wiltshire and throughout Wiltshire, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.

Which planning rules apply to land in Wiltshire?

As Wiltshire is in England, national policy comes from the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026. Local policies in the council's development plan also apply.
