Prime Building-Condition Land in Kumamoto's Historic Shin'yashiki District
This exclusive plot of land, offered by Sekisui House, presents a rare opportunity to build your custom home in the serene and historically rich Shin'yashiki neighborhood of Kumamoto City. The property is part of the "Common Stage Shin'yashiki 2-chome IV" development and comes with a crucial building condition. The land sale contract becomes valid only if a construction contract with the seller, Sekisui House Co., Ltd., is concluded within three months of signing. If a construction contract is not established within this period, the land sale contract becomes null and void, and any deposits received will be refunded in full without interest.
Critical agent notes have been translated for full transparency. Equipment/Facilities: None, as this is land not requiring development permission. Special Notes/Remarks: The property is subject to the following regulations: Quasi-Fire Prevention Zone, Road Setback Restrictions, Adjacent Land Setback Restrictions, Landscape Act, Sunlight Obstruction Regulations, Cultural Properties Protection Law, and Aviation Law. Additional costs include a water inspection fee of 7,000 yen (for a 13mm diameter connection; a larger diameter requires a separate water supply joining fee).
The 231.72 sqm plot is situated on a spacious 6-meter-wide front road, ensuring excellent access and a sense of openness. It is located in a quiet residential area within the Second Category Medium-to-High-Rise Exclusive Residential Zone. The area is well-equipped for family life, with multiple elementary and junior high schools, a post office, and bus stops within a short walking distance. The Kumamoto City Tram's "Kuhonji Intersection" stop is about a 17-minute walk away, providing access to the city center.
The surrounding Kumamoto area is steeped in history and natural beauty. A major landmark just a short drive away is the iconic Kumamoto Castle, one of Japan's most impressive feudal fortresses. Although damaged in the 2016 earthquakes, its ongoing restoration is a testament to the city's resilience, and the castle grounds remain a breathtaking site for cherry blossoms and historical exploration.
