Sell, partner or build in Gwynedd
There are two broad routes for garden land in Gwynedd. If you want to keep your house and step back from the development, you can sell the plot to us, with or without planning, or agree a sale subject to planning, an option, promotion or a joint venture.

The planning picture in Gwynedd
A strong planning application in Gwynedd usually begins before anything is submitted. Many councils offer pre-application advice, often for a fee, which gives early feedback on a design and flags problems while they’re still cheap to fix. Small schemes are then usually decided by planning officers under delegated powers, and national and council rules set out when, if ever, one goes to a planning committee instead. The councils covering Gwynedd all work within their own LDP and Planning Policy Wales (PPW). Our job is a careful, well-evidenced application; the decision is theirs.
Planning authorities: Gwynedd Council, Isle of Anglesey County Council.

Questions about garden plots in Gwynedd
How long does planning take for a garden plot in Gwynedd?
The council usually has eight weeks from validation to decide a small application, though extensions are often agreed, and the whole process takes longer. Surveys, design work, pre-application advice and amendments all add time, and some ecology surveys can only be done at certain times of year. We’ll give you a realistic timetable for your plot rather than a promise.
Do I need my own solicitor to sell a plot in Gwynedd?
Yes, always. Your solicitor checks the contract, deals with the transfer of part at HM Land Registry and asks your mortgage lender to release the plot if the house is mortgaged. On option and promotion agreements we cover your reasonable legal fees, with the cap agreed in heads of terms before work starts.
Can you build a new home in my garden in Gwynedd for me to keep?
Yes. Through our design and build route we survey your plot, design a new home with you, apply for planning and, once permission is granted, build it. You keep the land and the new home, to sell, let or use for family. You get a written quote after design and survey, and any earlier guide price is a guide only.
Which council decides planning for a garden plot in Gwynedd?
The council for your address decides. The planning authorities covering Gwynedd include Gwynedd Council and Isle of Anglesey County 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.
