Monteagudo de las Salinas

Can you build a house on rustic land?

Castilla-La Mancha requires at least 1.5 ha for a new house on rustic land.

Other cases: 3 ha on protected rustic land.

Orden 4/2020, art. 5. A town plan can be stricter.

No town plan: the region's general rules apply. 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.

Is there water?

IGME records 4 wells and boreholes in Monteagudo de las Salinas. Half of the 4 with a depth found water at 12–160 m. 11 springs are recorded.

Ground: 48% karstic or fissured aquifer, high productivity; 36% karstic or fissured aquifer, medium productivity; 14% porous aquifer, medium productivity.

Choosing where to drill takes a hydrogeologist.
