North Home Counties Land and Planning Team

A region with ambitious expansion plans

Do you have land for sale in Essex? From East London to Peterborough, we have successfully secured new development opportunities with planning permission, as well as promoted land through the local plan process. This includes our developments at Waterbeach and Kelvedon.

Our ambitious expansion plans continue, with a particular interest in land for sale in Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, West and South Suffolk, and East London Boroughs. We have extensive local knowledge, supported by decades of industry expertise thanks to Cala’s national presence. In order to fulfil our expansion plans, we’re forging relationships with UK landowners, agents, and local authorities to bring forward new building sites.
