The Chairboys want to build a permanent training base at South Buckinghamshire Golf Course, alongside community sports improvements at neighbouring Farnham Park Playing Fields.
The proposals would see the main golf course cut from 18 holes to 12 to accommodate the development, with a separate six-hole academy course and practice range provided.
A full planning application has been submitted to Buckinghamshire Council for the scheme.
At its heart would be a football performance centre with changing rooms, a gym, offices and education space, supported by an indoor pitch and nine outdoor pitches.
The complex would also include a goalkeeper training area, training grids, spectator seating and 116 car parking spaces.
The club says the facilities would meet Category 1 football academy facility standards, bringing its first team and youth development operations onto one site.
Planning documents describe Wanderers’ ambition to become a regular contender in the Championship and beyond, while expanding its community work and supporting future investment in women’s and girls’ football.
The club says it has been searching for a permanent home for its first team and academy for some time.
According to the planning statement, difficulties at the shared Harlington training site in west London prompted the club to upgrade Marlow Road for its first team, with the academy remaining at Harlington.
The Harlington lease expires in 2029, while the Marlow Road lease runs until September 2031.
Beyond the club’s training complex, Farnham Park would receive a new community sports hub with changing facilities, a café and office space for the Wycombe Wanderers Foundation.
A floodlit 3G football pitch, five covered padel courts and a walking route are also proposed.
The existing changing block would be demolished and the tennis courts removed.
The development would also involve changes to public access, with one footpath diverted around the training complex and another stopped up under the proposals.
The club says unrestricted access through the academy would conflict with safeguarding requirements.
The entire site lies in the green belt. The applicant acknowledges that some elements would be inappropriate development, but argues that sporting and community benefits provide the “very special circumstances” needed to justify permission.
Wanderers took over operation of the playing fields and golf course on August 24, 2026, according to the statement, following a partnership with the council.
The documents say previous operating arrangements were financially unsustainable and investment was needed.
The application, reference PL/26/07779/FA, seeks permission for the development.
