Prime Development Land in Okayama's Sought-After Shin'yashiki District
This exceptional plot of land, located in Okayama City's Kita Ward, Shin'yashiki 3-chome, presents a rare development opportunity. The property boasts a generous land area of 268.28 sqm (approximately 81.15 tsubo), offering ample space and an attractive location in an area that rarely comes to market. The site is a blank canvas with no pre-existing construction conditions, providing maximum flexibility for the new owner's vision.
Key property features and equipment include city gas, water supply, and sewer systems. Special notes detail the road access: the land fronts a 4-meter wide public road to the north with a 14-meter frontage, classified as a one-sided road under Article 42, Paragraph 1, Item 1 of the Building Standards Act. The area is designated as a quasi-fire prevention zone. The land is level, regularly shaped, and classified as residential land. A separate water and sewer connection fee of 600,000 yen applies.
The location is highly convenient. Omoto Station on the Uno Line is just a 5-minute bicycle ride away, providing excellent access to the regional rail network. Numerous commercial facilities are within easy walking distance, including Ramu Mart Okayama Noda Store (346m, 5 min walk), Fresh Market Kimura Okayama Daimyo Store (447m, 6 min walk), and a FamilyMart (299m, 4 min walk). A nearby park makes the area suitable for families with young children or for pleasant walks. The area is zoned as Category II Residential District with a building-to-land ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 200%, suitable for apartments, offices, commercial facilities, residential homes, shops, or medical clinics.
The Shin'yashiki area in Okayama City offers a blend of residential comfort and urban convenience. An interesting local fact is that Okayama is famously known as the "Land of Sunshine" due to its remarkably sunny and mild climate, which is ideal for enjoying the outdoors. The closest major landmark is the iconic Okayama Castle, a historic black castle known as "Crow Castle" (U-jo), located just a few kilometers away and surrounded by the beautiful Korakuen Garden, one of Japan's three great gardens.
