Land for Sale in Fukui City with Existing House and Development Potential
This substantial plot of land, spanning over 145.79 tsubo (approximately 481.96 square meters), presents a rare opportunity in Fukui City. The property features excellent access to National Route 8 and is within a 10-minute drive to the popular Owada area, offering a balance of convenience and spacious living. The site is currently occupied by an existing house, providing immediate potential for renovation or the option to start fresh with a new build.
Critical agent notes provide essential details for prospective buyers. The current status notes an existing old house on the land, and viewings are encouraged; interested parties are invited to contact the agent to arrange a free visit on their preferred date. Important remarks include that the property is located within a designated buried cultural property area (Area 13627). The land will be delivered as a cleared site after demolition, and there is a well on the premises. While the land is within a City Planning Act urbanization control area, it meets the requirements for an 'existing residential site equivalent,' meaning construction for personal residential use is possible, though it requires permission under Article 43 of the City Planning Act. Sewer pipes are available in the front road; however, connecting to them will require beneficiary contribution charges and construction costs. It is also noted that the western side of the property is not a road as defined by the Building Standards Act.
The Fukui region is renowned for its stunning natural beauty and rich history. An interesting local fact is that Fukui Prefecture is often called the "Dinosaur Kingdom" due to the significant number of fossils discovered there, including Japan's first complete dinosaur skeleton. The area offers a peaceful lifestyle while remaining well-connected. The closest major tourist attraction is the historic Eihei-ji Temple, one of the two head temples of Soto Zen Buddhism, located a scenic drive away in the mountains, offering a profound cultural and spiritual landmark.
