Why are houses in some deeds referred to as detached houses (Chalets) and others as sheds (almacens)?
Normally this is because the town planning law that is applied to a specific area does not allow houses to be built in certain circumstances, for example, when the plot of land is located on rural or undeveloped land and covers an area of less than 10.000 m2. In this case, what some individuals did was to apply for a licence to build a storage shed to keep farming tools in, which in certain cases, is allowed by the law. However, on obtaining this licence, and what they did later on was to illegally convert this shed into a house to live in, although legally it was still considered to be a shed, and was referred to as such in the corresponding deed. That is why anyone who is in the process of building a house should go to their local council authorities, and get information, in writing, about the legal town planning rules on the plot of land in question. At the same time it is worthwhile asking for information on the land planning, management, use, development and programming terms gove
