Land for Sale in Yaeze, Okinawa: A Blank Canvas for Your Dream Home
This vacant land parcel in the Tomoyose area of Yaeze Town, Okinawa, offers a significant opportunity for those looking to build their ideal residence or second home. The property consists of two combined lots totaling approximately 570.07 square meters (about 172.4 tsubo), providing ample space for a spacious single-family home or even a multi-generational dwelling. The land is classified as farmland and is situated on a gentle slope within an Urbanization Control Area, but crucially, it is designated as a "緩和区域" (relaxation zone). This special designation permits the construction of an owner-occupied residence, making this a rare find where you can build without the typical restrictions of the zone. There are no pre-set construction conditions, allowing for maximum creative freedom in designing a two-family home, a home with an office, or a vacation house.

The agency also helps families consider lifestyle changes, advising on school districts based on children's ages and finding properties close to workplaces or family. They thoroughly evaluate the surrounding environment, including public transportation options like bus access and disaster evacuation areas, tailoring proposals to each client's household needs. Their goal is to alleviate all anxieties associated with purchasing a home in a friendly, approachable atmosphere. Raia Home can provide viewings across all of Okinawa's main island, with appointments available after work in the evening, and by prior arrangement even as late as 9 or 10 PM.
The area of Yaeze is rich in history and natural beauty, located in the southern part of Okinawa Island. An interesting local fact is that the nearby town of Itoman is famous for its deep-rooted fishing culture and unique "Haarii" dragon boat races, a vibrant tradition with origins in prayers for safety and bountiful catches. The closest major tourist attraction is the stunning Gyokusendo Cave, part of the Okinawa World theme park, which features one of Japan's most magnificent limestone caverns. The property is conveniently located just a 4-minute walk from the Tomoyose bus stop, and immediate possession is available upon purchase.
