Sell, partner or build in Clwyd
Garden land usually leads to one of two outcomes: money for a plot you don’t need, or a new home that stays in your hands. For the first, we offer direct purchase, sales subject to planning, options, planning promotion, joint ventures and help combining gardens with neighbours across Clwyd. For the second, our design and build route takes you from feasibility to handover, with a written quote once the design and survey are done.

The planning picture in Clwyd
Some of the rules that shape a garden plot in Clwyd are set nationally and differ between England and Wales. Here the key national document is Planning Policy Wales (PPW), and new homes must meet the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales. That affects practical matters such as sprinklers, which every new home in Wales must have. On drainage you’ll usually need approval from the SuDS Approval Body (SAB) before building starts. Land purchases fall under Land Transaction Tax (LTT), and ecology work has to reflect the Welsh requirement to deliver a net benefit for biodiversity. Your local council then adds its own LDP policies on design, parking and garden sizes. We work to the right set of rules for every plot.
Planning authorities: Conwy County Borough Council, Denbighshire County Council, Flintshire County Council, Wrexham County Borough Council.

Questions about garden plots in Clwyd
How much is a garden plot in Clwyd worth?
It depends on location, size, access, title and, above all, planning. Two similar gardens in the same street can be worth very different amounts if one has easy access and the other doesn’t. We don’t quote figures before we’ve looked at a plot properly; the free appraisal is the way to find out.
Which council decides planning for a garden plot in Clwyd?
The council for your address decides. The planning authorities covering Clwyd include Conwy County Borough Council, Denbighshire County Council, Flintshire County Council and Wrexham County Borough Council. Each judges applications against its own LDP and Planning Policy Wales (PPW), together with its design guidance. We prepare and submit the application and deal with the council’s questions, but the decision is always the council’s, never ours.
Can neighbours in Clwyd combine their gardens?
Yes. Putting two or more adjoining back gardens together can allow one shared access and a better layout than separate plots. Each owner keeps their house. The owners usually sign a collaboration agreement, with an equalisation clause so that value is shared fairly even though only one garden provides the access. Each household should take its own legal advice.
Which national rules apply to a new home in Clwyd?
Garden schemes here sit under Planning Policy Wales (PPW), with the local detail coming from the council’s Local Development Plan (LDP). New homes must also meet the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales. That affects things such as sprinklers, which every new home in Wales must have. On drainage you’ll usually need approval from the SuDS Approval Body (SAB) before building starts, and land purchases fall under Land Transaction Tax (LTT). We check which rules apply to your plot as part of the free appraisal.
