Land for Sale in Okayama City with River Access and Development Potential
This 200 square meter (approximately 60.50 tsubo) plot of land is located in the Kyuhan area of Higashi Ward, Okayama City, Okayama Prefecture. The property is situated just a one-minute walk from the Yoshii River, offering immediate access to scenic waterfront views and recreational opportunities. The land is currently vacant and level, presenting a blank canvas for residential development.
Critical agent notes provide essential details for prospective buyers. The property is equipped with propane gas and a septic tank system. It is a corner lot with road frontage: a 4-meter wide public road to the east and a 3.5-meter wide public road to the north. A crucial special note states that because the land is within a City Planning Area of Adjustment (市街化調整区域), an application will be required at the time of construction, which is an important regulatory consideration for any building plans.
The Higashi Ward area of Okayama is known for its blend of residential calm and natural beauty, with the Yoshii River being a central feature. An interesting local fact is that Okayama is famously known as the "Land of Sunshine" due to its low annual rainfall and abundant sunny days. The closest major landmark is the iconic Okayama Castle, a black castle known as "Crow Castle," located approximately 8 kilometers west in the city center, which is surrounded by the beautiful Korakuen Garden, one of Japan's three great gardens.
