Small sites wanted in Kenilworth
If you own small sites in or around Kenilworth, we would like to hear about it. We buy directly and give a free, no-obligation appraisal.
A small site is usually land for fewer than ten homes, such as a corner plot, a side garden or a small field. Larger housebuilders often overlook them, but small sites are exactly the kind of land we want across England and Wales.

What small sites we want near Kenilworth
We want to hear about plots for a few homes anywhere around Kenilworth, including ones a larger builder has already turned down. Kenilworth lies about 5 miles north of Warwick in Warwickshire. We also cover Warwick, Coventry, Leamington Spa and the villages between them.
- Corner plots and side gardens with road frontage
- Plots with consent for one to nine homes
- Sites where an earlier application can be improved
- Land within or touching a settlement boundary
The M40, M6 and M69 corridors and the Chiltern Main Line through Warwick and Leamington Spa attract interest, along with land near the High Speed 2 route. The south of the county has many conservation-area villages, so heritage and design are often important considerations for small sites.
What usually makes or breaks it
Design fit
A small scheme has to suit the street and the neighbours.
Access
Even small sites need a safe access and parking.
BNG (England)
From 6 August 2026 non-major sites of 0.2 ha or less are generally exempt from mandatory BNG unless priority habitat is affected.
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.
Parts of Warwickshire are Green Belt, though not every town has any nearby. We check early whether a site is inside it and, if so, whether a grey belt or previously developed land case could apply.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 19 miles from Kenilworth, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.
