Spacious Residential Plot in the Tranquil Countryside of Okayama City
This property presents a substantial residential land plot of 504.51 square meters (approximately 152.61 tsubo) located in the Mitsu area of Higashi Ward, Okayama City, Okayama Prefecture. Situated in a peaceful, rural setting, the land is a corner lot with road frontage on two sides: a 4-meter wide public road to the south and a 2-meter wide public road to the east. The site is gently sloping and currently contains an old house, which will be demolished and delivered as a vacant lot to the buyer.
Critical agent notes provide essential details for prospective purchasers. The property is equipped with public water and sewer services. However, the existing water supply pipe is φ13mm; the cost to upgrade it to φ20mm will be borne by the buyer. While public sewer connection is available, there is no city gas pipeline on the southern municipal road. A building permit application is required for any construction, with the associated costs also the buyer's responsibility. The lot has a frontage of approximately 21 meters and a depth of about 24 meters. The land is designated as Category 2 Urbanization Control Area, with a building coverage ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 200%.
The area offers a serene, countryside lifestyle within Okayama City. An interesting local fact is that Okayama is famously known as the "Land of Sunshine" due to its exceptionally sunny and mild climate. The closest major landmark is the iconic Okayama Castle, a historic black castle also known as "Crow Castle" due to its distinctive color, located approximately 10 kilometers west in the city center.
