Grañón

Can you build a house on rustic land?

La Rioja requires at least 2 ha for a new house on dry, unirrigated rustic land.

Other cases: 5,000 m² on irrigated rustic land.

Ley 5/2006, art. 52. A town plan can be stricter.

Plan in force: Plan General (a full town plan), from 2004. The region's planning viewer ↗

The SIU does not map land classes here: the town plan is the source.

Only the town hall can confirm it, in writing: ask for a certificado urbanístico.
