Site Diversification & Development
We develop master plans for clients, showing what can be achieved on these large sites to ensure the financial viability of estate, private, public or agricultural land.
If you are considering developing a site, we can help you maximise the site value and consider sharing some of the risk and reward with you. We are open to discussing bespoke arrangements with you to explore lower initial fees and incentivised rewards based on the number of units we can obtain approval for on your site.
We can also provide a scoping service using “Planning in Principle” to test the waters with your local planning authority to establish if residential development of up to 9 units could be achieved on your site. Get in touch to discuss what we can offer in a more collaborative approach to developing your site.
Keeping you in control
We help clients maximise their land’s value for both finances and the environment.
With expertise in self-sufficient, off-grid solutions, we develop strategies that keep you in control. Our sustainable buildings enhance biodiversity and generate on-site energy, reducing reliance on utilities.
Diversification
Diversification can mean new uses for your site, such as agri-tourism, quality housing, or employment opportunities that support community needs.
We guide landowners and clients, including those in private, affordable and social housing, through regulations, liaising with authorities, councils, consultants, and neighbours to ensure developments benefit both landowners and local communities.
Planning in Principle
The challenge
Changes to farmers’ subsidies, increasingly complicated regulations and a need to improve the biodiversity of land in the UK are leading to land owners having to address how they can keep hold of their estate, consider new income streams to ensure the longevity of their land ownership and improve habitats for wildlife.
How can we help?
We can help you by developing well-considered master plans and exploring the opportunities available to you on your site.
At lapd, we view listed buildings, protected species and dilapidated structures on site as potential opportunities rather than issues to deal with in the future.
