Critical agent notes have been provided, which include essential information for prospective buyers. The property falls within the school districts for Takaezu Elementary School and Takaezu Junior High School.

This is a vital step for the conversion of agricultural land to residential use and must be addressed in the purchasing process.
The location is highly convenient for daily life.

The surrounding Uruma City area is rich in natural beauty and cultural history. An interesting local fact is that Uruma's name was created from the Okinawan words for "coral" (uru) and "island" (ma), reflecting its origins from several merged towns and villages on Okinawa's central east coast. The closest major tourist attraction is the iconic Katsuren Castle (勝連城跡), a UNESCO World Heritage site. This Ryukyuan gusuku (castle) ruins offer breathtaking panoramic views of the ocean and surrounding islands, providing a profound connection to Okinawa's unique kingdom era.
