David and Jenny Watkiss had no idea what their land was worth until they approached Lingfield Land via a recommendation to assess their small site on the outskirts of Chester. After an initial meeting, our brief was to maximise the receipt value of the plot and prepare an exit strategy via a sale for their land, which was located in open countryside, within green barrier and outside a settlement boundary.

After ecology, historic and coal mining surveys were successfully accepted, we gained planning permission in December 2016 for the demolition of two existing semi-detatched cottages and outbuildings and the erection of two large, modern, detached cottages with garages and landscaped gardens. The sale was completed in August 2017 to a house builder with construction due to start a few months later.

David said: “We were recommended to use Lingfield Homes Ltd by another landowner, as we never know how much our land was worth until we engaged with them. They thought through a scheme to realise us the best value, prepared and designed the whole thing, prepared all necessary reports and obtained planning permission and sale. We would definitely use them again and highly recommend them. They were extremely diligent and professional”
