Also means

parcel (of land)

Usage Note

Appezzamento refers specifically to a defined portion of agricultural or buildable land — a plot or parcel. It is the standard term in Italian real estate and land-registry documents (catasto). Learners should not confuse it with appartamento (apartment): despite some phonetic resemblance, these are entirely different words.

"Ha acquistato un appezzamento di terreno."
