A Property with Unique Considerations in Suginami, Tokyo

This listing presents a two-building property for sale as a single lot in Tokyo's Suginami Ward, Horinouchi 2-chome. Built in August 1964, the main structure is a two-story wooden building with a total floor area of 32.67m² and a 2K layout. The land area is a substantial 139.53m².

Critical agent notes provide essential details. The property's road access situation is described as having frontage to one road to the east, which is a 4-meter wide private road with a designated position, but the actual contact width is only 1.9 meters. This leads to a crucial limitation: the land does not fulfill the Building Standards Act's road frontage obligation. Consequently, new construction is not permitted, and the existing buildings cannot be expanded, remodeled, or rebuilt.

The sale includes a second building, which is a two-story wooden structure with a tile roof. This building has a total floor area of 75.72m² (55.89m² on the first floor and 19.83m² on the second floor) with a 5K layout. Its construction date is unknown. Utilities include city gas, public water supply, and public sewerage. The property is located within an Urbanization Area, a Category 1 Residential Zone, a Quasi-Fire Prevention District, and a Type 2 Height District.

The property is situated in a quiet residential neighborhood within Suginami, a ward known for its balance of urban convenience and residential calm. The area is a short 7-minute walk from Hōnanchō Station on the Tokyo Metro Hanzōmon Line, providing direct access to the city's core. A notable local landmark is the Suginami Animation Museum, which celebrates the ward's significant contribution to Japan's animation industry.
