Is your land in Prestatyn the kind we want?
Around Prestatyn, the residential land that tends to work is close to existing homes, shops and transport rather than out on its own. Prestatyn is in Clwyd, about 16 miles north-west of Mold. Nearby places include Rhyl, Abergele and Holywell.
- Land next to or within an existing town, village or suburb
- Sites with a road frontage or a clear route to one
- Single plots, small sites, medium sites and larger strategic land
- Freehold land where the owner (or all the owners) can sell
Clwyd covers north-east Wales, from Wrexham, Deeside, Buckley, Mold and Flint to the coastal towns of Rhyl, Prestatyn, Colwyn Bay and Llandudno and the market towns of the Vale of Clwyd. Typical sites include edge-of-town fields, former industrial land around Deeside and Wrexham, farm buildings and village infill. There is no grey belt in Wales, but Future Wales anticipates a green belt around Wrexham and Deeside, and the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley National Landscape is a major constraint.
What usually makes or breaks it
Settlement boundary
Land inside or touching a defined settlement usually has a clearer policy route than isolated land.
Access
A safe vehicle access with adequate visibility is often the single biggest make-or-break item.
Utilities and drainage
Foul and surface water drainage, and power capacity, affect cost and timing more than most owners expect.
In Wales a planning permission usually lasts five years before work must begin, and land purchases are subject to Land Transaction Tax rather than Stamp Duty Land Tax.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 83 miles from Prestatyn, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Residential development land in Prestatyn: common questions
Does my land need planning permission before you will look at it?
No. Most residential land we are asked about has no planning yet. We look at policy, access and constraints and tell you whether we think a permission is realistic, and which way of selling suits the risk.
Can I sell part of my land and keep the rest?
Often, yes. We can look at selling an agreed area, with access and boundaries set out so the land you keep is not left landlocked.
Is Prestatyn too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 83 miles from Prestatyn, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
Which planning rules apply to land in Prestatyn?
As Prestatyn is in Wales, national policy comes from Planning Policy Wales and Future Wales: the National Plan 2040. Local policies in the council's development plan also apply.
