Lake Town Gion Phase 15: A Modern, Eco-Friendly Residential Development in Nagahama
This property is a plot of land for sale within the Lake Town Gion Phase 15 development, a modern residential area in Nagahama City, Shiga Prefecture. The land is sold with a construction condition, meaning the purchase is contingent upon signing a building contract with Sekisui Heim Kinki within three months of the land purchase agreement. If a building contract is not concluded within this period, the land sale agreement becomes void and all monies paid, including deposits, will be refunded in full.
Critical agent notes provide essential details. The property is located in a City Planning Area Adjustment Zone (Gion Hachinotsubo District Plan Area). The development is already completed. The home built here will feature solar power generation, a storage battery system, Smart Heim Navi (HEMS for home energy management), and security by ALSOK. Buyers should note separate initial fees per plot: a water supply membership fee of 154,000 yen (20mm, tax included), a water supply burden fee of 8,730 yen, a sewerage construction beneficiary burden fee of 180,000 yen, and a city gas in-premises piping construction burden fee of 7,419 yen. The project owner and seller is Wakabayashi Real Estate, with sales handled by Sekisui Heim Kinki Co., Ltd., Keiji Branch. Rainwater is managed via side ditches.
The development showcases Sekisui Heim's advanced construction features, including a robust box-frame structure and a solid mat foundation designed to withstand severe earthquakes. The homes are largely factory-built for precision and quality, featuring high-durability exteriors, roofs, and interiors. The integrated solar and storage battery system aims for energy independence, protecting against rising electricity costs. The "Comfort Airy" system provides whole-house air conditioning and ventilation for a uniformly comfortable environment year-round.
The area around Nagahama is rich in history and natural beauty. A key nearby landmark is Lake Biwa, Japan's largest freshwater lake, offering boating, fishing, and scenic lakeside parks just a short drive away. Nagahama itself is famous for its well-preserved historic district, Kurokabe Square, known for its black-walled merchant houses now housing glass studios, cafes, and museums, offering a charming glimpse into the Edo period.
