Land for Sale in Iwanuma, Miyagi with Rebuilding Potential
This 1,182.26 sqm plot of land is located in Iwanuma City, Miyagi Prefecture. The property is designated as being within a City Planning Area of Adjustment, but rebuilding is permitted under specific conditions. These conditions are: 1. The use must be a single-family detached dwelling. 2. The total floor area of the building must be within 280 sqm. 3. The plot must be within the current lot boundaries (Iwanuma City, Shimono-go, Tateshita 211, 211-2). 4. No new development activities are allowed. 5. If rebuilding, construction must commence within one year of demolishing the existing structure. After one year passes, rebuilding is no longer permitted.
Critical agent notes provide essential information. The site is located within a Cultural Property Protection Area (the Shimono-go Tate Ruins), and consultation with the Iwanuma City Board of Education is required. Importantly, the land is within an area affected by the tsunami during the Great East Japan Earthquake. It is in a predicted tsunami inundation zone (3-5 meters) and a predicted flood inundation zone (0.5-3.0 meters), which must be carefully noted. Dividing the land for residential construction is limited to housing for agricultural workers. The existing buildings and bamboo groves on the property will be transferred in their current state. Items left inside the buildings are scheduled for removal. The seller is not considering the land for solar power generation business use, and inquiries for such purposes are declined. The property has access to public water and electricity.
The area of Iwanuma offers a blend of history and coastal living. An interesting local fact is that the city is home to the "Iwanuma Kokeshi," a traditional wooden doll with a distinctive design. The closest major landmark is the iconic Matsushima Bay, one of Japan's Three Most Scenic Views, renowned for its pine-clad islands and serene beauty, located approximately 30 kilometers north.
