Prime Development Land for Medical Clinic in Kurashiki, Okayama
This 737 square meter plot of land, located in Futago, Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture, presents a significant development opportunity. The land is specifically marketed for the establishment of medical facilities, such as a clinic, with the explicit note that it is suitable for clinics excluding otorhinolaryngology and dental practices. There are no pre-existing building conditions attached to the property, offering flexibility for the future owner's design and construction plans.
Critical infrastructure is already in place. The property is equipped with propane gas, a public water supply, a septic tank, side ditches, and electricity connections. The road access is detailed: it fronts a public road to the east, which is 8 meters wide and paved, with a frontage of 30 meters. There is also access from the northwest via a 3-meter wide public paved road with a 4-meter frontage. The land itself is flat and currently vacant, ready for development.
Prospective buyers should be aware of important procedural requirements. The land is located within a City Planning Area designated as an "Adjustment Area" (市街化調整区域), and its current land classification is agricultural field (田畑). Therefore, a change of land use (農地転用) from agricultural to building land is a necessary step before construction can begin. Furthermore, the development process will require applications for development permits and associated development costs.
The area of Kurashiki is rich in history and culture, famously known for its beautifully preserved Bikan Historical Quarter with its iconic white-walled warehouses and willow-lined canals. A major landmark near this property is the Kurashiki Ivy Square, a charming complex of red-brick buildings covered in ivy, originally a textile mill and now housing museums, shops, and a hotel, located just a few kilometers from the site.
