Land with Traditional House in Tokyo's Mejiro District
This property presents a rare opportunity in central Tokyo: a 180.4㎡ plot of land in Mejiro 2-chome, Toshima Ward, complete with an existing traditional Japanese house (古家). The land is situated within a designated First-Class Educational District, known for its concentration of educational facilities and quiet residential atmosphere. The location offers excellent access with three train lines within walking distance: a 5-minute walk to Zoshigaya Station on the Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line, an 8-minute walk to Mejiro Station on the JR Yamanote Line, and a 5-minute walk to Koshinzuka-mae Station on the Toden Arakawa Line, providing convenient commuting options.
The land area of 180.40 square meters includes a set-back portion of approximately 3.3 square meters. A key feature is that there are no building conditions attached to the sale, allowing the buyer the freedom to choose their preferred house builder or to potentially renovate the existing traditional structure. The property is in a quiet residential neighborhood and is zoned for building coverage of 60% and a floor area ratio of 160%. The land rights are freehold (ownership).
The surrounding Mejiro area is a prestigious and serene part of Tokyo, known for its historical charm and proximity to major hubs like Ikebukuro. An interesting local landmark is the nearby Gokokuji Temple, a significant Buddhist temple founded in the 17th century. The area seamlessly blends quiet, tree-lined streets with excellent urban convenience.
