A group of paragliders forces the demolition of a chalet with 11 bedrooms in the best lookout point of Zarautz through the courts
The Supreme Court upholds the demolition order of a privileged building constructed by the family of a former PNV councillor.
A family in Zarautz, Gipuzkoa, has built a large chalet with 11 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms on Talaimendi, overlooking the Cantábrico coast. The family, including Maite Garrastazu, a former PNV councillor, replaced an old family farmhouse that had fallen into disrepair. However, the construction was declared illegal by the courts due to its location in a protected ecological corridor and non-urbanizable land.
The Tribunal Supremo has rejected the property owner's appeals, ordering the demolition of the chalet as of January 2025. The ruling now allows for the restoration of the land to its original state.
