Land with planning permission wanted in Chessington

We want to hear from owners of land with planning permission in Chessington. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.

Land with planning permission is a site where the council has already granted consent for new homes, either in outline or in full. We buy consented sites across England and Wales, including those where the owner does not want to build out the scheme.

Land with planning permission we are looking for in Chessington

If you hold a consent in or near Chessington, send us the decision notice and the approved drawings; that is usually enough for a first view. In Greater London, Chessington sits about 13 miles south-west of central London; Ewell and Epsom are its nearest neighbours on our list.

  • Outline permissions, full permissions and approved reserved matters
  • Permissions that are close to their time limit to start work
  • Sites where some pre-commencement conditions are still to be discharged
  • Single plots with consent for one or two homes

Outer London, from Romford and Bexley to Uxbridge, Barnet, Croydon and Sutton, contains most of the capital's remaining land opportunities. Around the edge, the Metropolitan Green Belt and Metropolitan Open Land protect open space, and a small part of the Kent Downs National Landscape lies in the south-east. Sites usually come forward as small infill plots, garage courts, backland, former commercial buildings and occasional grey belt land on the urban fringe.

Before we make an offer in Chessington

Time limit

Permissions normally have to be started within a set period, so the date the consent expires matters a great deal.

Planning obligations

Section 106 contributions, affordable housing and any Community Infrastructure Levy all affect what the land is worth to a builder.

Title and access

Consent does not cure title problems, so rights of access and covenants still need checking.

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.

We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 107 miles from Chessington, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Your questions answered

Will the Section 106 obligations transfer to the buyer?

Planning obligations usually run with the land, so they bind whoever owns it. We review them as part of our due diligence.

Can you buy if the approved scheme is not one you would build?

Yes. Sometimes we buy on the basis of the existing permission and then seek changes through a new or amended application.

Do you buy land with planning permission in Chessington?

Yes. We buy land with planning permission in Chessington and throughout Greater London, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.

Do I need to pay anything to have land in Chessington assessed?

No. Our appraisal is free and there is no obligation to sell to us.
