Residential development land wanted in Penarth
We want to hear from owners of residential development land in Penarth. There is nothing to pay us, and you are under no obligation.
Residential development land means a site with a credible route to new homes. Planning permission is not essential: much of the land we want has none yet. What matters is location, access and whether local policy could support housing in the next few years.

Is your land in Penarth the kind we want?
Sites on the edge of Penarth or the villages nearby can be worth a conversation, especially where they are well connected by road and bus or rail. In South Glamorgan, Penarth sits about 3 miles south of Cardiff; Cardiff and Barry are its nearest neighbours on our list.
- Land next to or within an existing town, village or suburb
- Sites with a road frontage or a clear route to one
- Land outside the highest flood risk zones, or where flood risk only affects part of the site
- Single plots, small sites, medium sites and larger strategic land
Cardiff is a major focus for new homes in Wales, with regeneration around Cardiff Bay, the city centre and stations on the South Wales Metro. The Glamorgan Heritage Coast, conservation areas and the airport at Rhoose shape what is suitable in the rural Vale.
Before we make an offer in Penarth
Settlement boundary
Land inside or touching a defined settlement usually has a clearer policy route than isolated land.
Flood risk
We check the official flood maps early; land in the highest-risk zones is rarely suitable for homes.
Utilities and drainage
Foul and surface water drainage, and power capacity, affect cost and timing more than most owners expect.
Flood risk in Wales is assessed under Technical Advice Note 15 and the Flood Map for Planning, which can be decisive for land near rivers and the coast.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 94 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.

Questions owners in Penarth ask
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.
Will you tell me if you think the land is not suitable?
Yes. If we think the site has no realistic route to homes we will say so and, where we can, explain why.
Do you buy residential development land in Penarth?
Yes. We buy residential development land in Penarth and throughout South Glamorgan, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.
How quickly can you look at a site in Penarth?
For most sites we can give an initial view once we have the location and a plan. Detailed checks follow if the land looks suitable.
