grunnstykki

Grunnstykki is a Norwegian term that translates to "plot" or "parcel of land." It refers to a legally defined area of real estate, often a single property or a subdivision of a larger tract. The concept of grunnstykki is fundamental to land ownership and registration in Norway.

Each grunnstykki is assigned a unique identification number, known as a gårdsnummer (farm number) and bruksnummer (usage number), which is used in official land registry records. This system helps to clearly identify and demarcate property boundaries, facilitating transactions, taxation, and land use planning. The size and characteristics of a grunnstykki can vary widely, from small urban plots to extensive agricultural land.

The registration of grunnstykki is managed by the Norwegian Mapping Authority (Kartverket). This ensures that all land ownership information is accurate and up-to-date. Understanding the concept of grunnstykki is crucial for anyone involved in buying, selling, or developing property in Norway, as it forms the basis of all real estate dealings. The precise definition and boundaries of a grunnstykki are legally binding.
