Residential development land wanted in Nuneaton
We are actively looking for residential development land in Nuneaton and the surrounding area, with or without planning permission.
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 Nuneaton the kind we want?
Sites on the edge of Nuneaton or the villages nearby can be worth a conversation, especially where they are well connected by road and bus or rail. Nuneaton is in Warwickshire, about 17 miles north of Warwick. Nearby places include Bedworth, Hinckley and Atherstone.
- 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
- Freehold land where the owner (or all the owners) can sell
Warwickshire includes Nuneaton, Bedworth and Rugby in the north and east, Warwick, Leamington Spa and Kenilworth in the centre, and Stratford-upon-Avon and many villages in the south. Green Belt covers much of the north and west, next to Birmingham and Coventry, and the Cotswolds National Landscape reaches the south of the county. Typical sites include edge-of-town fields, farm buildings, village infill and former industrial or colliery land around Nuneaton and Bedworth.
Checks we make on residential development land in Nuneaton
Flood risk
We check the official flood maps early; land in the highest-risk zones is rarely suitable for homes.
Development plan position
Whether the council has an up-to-date plan shapes how applications are judged; in England, housing land supply also matters.
Utilities and drainage
Foul and surface water drainage, and power capacity, affect cost and timing more than most owners expect.
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.
Some land in Warwickshire is designated Green Belt. If your land is within it, it may still qualify as grey belt or previously developed land under national policy, subject to the Golden Rules.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 19 miles from Nuneaton, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.

Your questions answered
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.
Do you buy residential development land in Nuneaton?
Yes. We buy residential development land in Nuneaton and throughout Warwickshire, as well as elsewhere in England and Wales. Tell us where the land is and we will give you a free appraisal.
Is Nuneaton too far from our Birmingham base?
No. We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 19 miles from Nuneaton, and we look at land right across England and Wales.
