New build cost in Wimbledon.
Wimbledon — SW19 — south-west London with a mix of village character around the common and Victorian/Edwardian terraces on the slopes below. Strong loft-conversion demand from family buyers.
What makes new-build work in Wimbledon distinct.
Site context: Edwardian terraces and semis on the slopes, Victorian villas around the village, and 1920s/30s housing on the southern fringes.
Planning: Wimbledon Village, John Innes and Hartfield Road conservation areas cover specific pockets. Most of central SW19 retains PD rights.
Applications go to LB Merton. We handle the Pre-App, planning submission, party wall awards, CIL calculations and conservation officer correspondence end-to-end.

What Wimbledon self-builders ask us.
How much does it cost to build a new home in Wimbledon in 2026?
Typical 2026 Wimbledon ranges (inc. design, planning, build, CIL & VAT): infill plots £419k–£1.1m; replacement dwellings £558k–£1.4m; garden plots £512k–£1.3m; large new builds £837k–£2.3m; multi-unit £1.1m–£4.2m+. The Wimbledon multiplier (0.93×) reflects local labour, scaffolding logistics and finish expectations.
What's the planning process for a new build in Wimbledon?
Always full planning permission via LB Merton. Wimbledon Village, John Innes and Hartfield Road conservation areas cover specific pockets. Most of central SW19 retains PD rights. Most Wimbledon new builds start with a Pre-Application (£500–£2,500) to test feasibility, then a full planning submission running 13–18 weeks. Conservation areas, Article 4 directions and proximity to listed buildings add scrutiny.
What kind of plot makes sense in Wimbledon?
Edwardian terraces and semis on the slopes, Victorian villas around the village, and 1920s/30s housing on the southern fringes. Plot types that come up most often in SW19: replacement of an existing house (demolish + rebuild), side-garden infills on corner plots, and occasional backland sites accessed via a private drive. Plot acquisition prices in Wimbledon are part of the equation — we help test feasibility before you commit to a purchase.
How long does a Wimbledon new build take from purchase to keys?
Allow 6–12 months for design and planning (longer in conservation-sensitive parts of Wimbledon), then 12–18 months on site for a single dwelling, 18–24 months for a large new build, and 24–36 months for multi-unit schemes. Our build programme is fixed in the contract.
How much is CIL in Wimbledon?
Community Infrastructure Levy varies by London borough and zone, typically £20–£500 per m² of net additional floorspace. LB Merton publishes its current CIL rates online; we calculate your specific liability at the planning-application stage. Section 106 affordable housing or infrastructure contributions may apply on larger schemes.
