Monteagudo del Castillo

Can you build a house on rustic land?

Aragón requires at least 1 ha for a new house on rustic land.

DL 1/2014, art. 34.2. A town plan can be stricter.

Plan in force: Plan General (a full town plan), from 2013. 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 one well or borehole in Monteagudo del Castillo. Its depth: 75 m. 9 springs are recorded.

Ground: 56% low permeability, local groundwater only; 30% karstic or fissured aquifer, medium productivity; 14% practically impermeable.

Choosing where to drill takes a hydrogeologist.
