Jointly owned urban land 200 metres from the sea

The beach is a 200-metre walk from the boundary, and a golf course sits directly alongside the site. This residential plot in Casares comprises approximately 2,450 m² of jointly owned urban land where infrastructure works are already completed and officially accepted by the municipality. Rather than raw land awaiting primary urbanisation, the parcel is ready for building subject to project licensing.

How the two plots and existing houses divide the land

The sale covers the available share across two constituent plots, referred to in the planning records as Plot A and Plot B. On paper, each full plot carries an original land readjustment measurement of 2,299.33 m², a building density ratio of 0.5555 m²/m², and an initial maximum allowance of 10 residential units per plot. However, each plot already contains a built 165 m² single-family house with a private pool. Those two existing homes remain on their respective grounds and are deducted from the original land area, unit count, and buildable allowance. What remains available across the two plots is an approximate 2,450 m² of jointly owned land (roughly 1,300 m² per plot) with a combined remaining allowance for 18 residential units—nine on Plot A and nine on Plot B.

Zoning parameters and buildable volume

Both plots fall under the UA zoning ordinance and its compatible uses. After deducting the two 165 m² houses already standing, each plot retains 1,111 m² of buildable area, giving a combined total of 2,222 m² of remaining buildable area across the offering. Under the applicable planning rules, garages, basements, and terraces are excluded from this buildable figure, which gives an architect more flexibility when designing the footprint of the 18 homes. Buildings are restricted to a maximum height of two storeys and a maximum lot coverage (occupancy) of 50%. The vendor also notes the possibility of acquiring a single plot together with the existing built house rather than the combined site.

What a buyer needs to verify before offering

A buyer examining this residential plot in Casares has two specific technical matters to establish early with a lawyer and surveyor. First, the exact surface area requires a boundary survey: while the land readjustment plan records each full plot at 2,299.33 m², the Cadastre lists Plot A at 2,480 m² and Plot B at 2,275 m². Second, because the available land is sold on a jointly owned basis (proindiviso) alongside the existing 165 m² homes, a buyer must review the legal division of the plot, how the 50% lot coverage is apportioned between the existing houses and the new project, and the formal agreements required with the co-owners to submit planning applications for the remaining 18 units.
