Prime Building-Condition Land in Kitakyushu's Kotobuki-yama Area
This listing presents a rare opportunity to acquire a plot of land within the "Common Stage Kotobuki-yama" development by Sekisui House, a leading Japanese homebuilder. The land is offered with a building condition, meaning the purchase contract only becomes valid once a construction contract with Sekisui House is finalized within three months of signing. This ensures a cohesive and high-quality neighborhood aesthetic. The development is already completed, with utilities fully in place.
Critical details from the agent notes are as follows. Equipment/Facilities: The development is completed (lots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5). Special Notes/Remarks: There is a water supply share fee of 48,400 yen (tax included, 13mm diameter) or 79,200 yen (tax included, 20mm diameter), plus an inspection fee of 11,000 yen. To promote the formation of a good streetscape, a "Streetscape Guideline" has been created. The land sale contract for this subdivision land becomes effective on the condition that a construction contract is established with the seller, Sekisui House Co., Ltd., within three months after the contract is concluded. If a construction contract is not established by the deadline, the land sale contract is definitively voided, and any received deposits, etc., will be promptly refunded in full without interest.
The plots range in size from approximately 168.06 to 200.92 square meters, offering ample space for a custom family home. The area is zoned as Category I Medium-to-High-Rise Exclusive Residential, ensuring a peaceful living environment. Key utilities include electricity from Kyushu Electric Power, city gas from Seibu Gas, and public water and sewer systems.
The location in Kitakyushu's Kokurakita Ward is highly convenient. Daily necessities are within a short walk, with supermarkets like Hello Day Ashihara and Gyomu Super Kokura Ohata stores just 6-8 minutes away. The area is also served by excellent public transport links via Nishitetsu Bus. A fascinating fact about Kitakyushu is that it was formed in 1963 by the merger of five separate cities, making it one of Japan's earliest designated "designated major cities." The closest major landmark is the historic Kokura Castle, a beautifully reconstructed castle dating back to the early Edo period, which is a short drive away and serves as a cultural centerpiece for the city.
