Spacious Land Parcel Adjacent to Kin Town Fureai no Mori Park in Okinawa
This expansive land parcel, spanning 24,511.00 square meters (approximately 7,414.57 tsubo), presents a significant development opportunity in the serene setting of Kin Town, Okinawa. The property is classified as vacant land (更地) and is situated outside of an urban planning area, offering flexibility for its future use, with an optimal suggested purpose being for a villa or second home.
Critical agent notes provide essential details for prospective developers. The property is equipped with a water supply and requires a septic tank (浄化槽), as the area is not serviced by a public sewer system. Access is via a one-sided road to the northeast, which is a 4-meter wide public road (公道) belonging to Ginoza Village. A 50mm HIVP water supply pipe is already buried beneath this frontage road. The land has a sloping terrain and requires development permission from Okinawa Prefecture under the Urban Planning Act. Furthermore, the property is subject to local landscape ordinances and prefectural land conservation regulations.
A key feature is the property's adjacency to the Kin Town Fureai no Mori Park, providing immediate access to green space and recreational areas. The land rights are for full ownership, and the transfer of the property is negotiable. The site has a building-to-land ratio of 70% and a floor area ratio of 400%.
The area of Kin Town in northern Okinawa offers a quieter, nature-rich alternative to the more developed southern parts of the island. An interesting local fact is that the nearby US Camp Hansen is historically linked to the name of the town itself, as "Kin" is the Japanese reading of the Chinese character for "gold," which was used to translate the name of Marine Corps Commandant General John A. Lejeune, whose nickname was "Gold." The closest major landmark is the stunning Emerald Beach, part of the Ocean Expo Park and home to the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, approximately a 30-minute drive away, renowned for its massive Kuroshio Sea tank and vibrant marine life.
