Prime Development Land in Okinawa City's Popular Ohzato Area
This 514 square meter (approximately 155.48 tsubo) plot of land is located in the highly sought-after Ohzato 1-chome district of Okinawa City. The property has been cleared of trees, making it easier to visualize development potential. It boasts a generous frontage of approximately 45 meters and is situated within a 10-minute walk of local elementary and junior high schools, with supermarkets also conveniently nearby, offering a comfortable living environment.
Critical agent notes and special remarks have been provided and must be carefully considered. The property is currently classified as farmland, meaning permission for conversion under Article 5 of the Agricultural Land Act is required for any change of use. Furthermore, there is a significant elevation difference of approximately 6 to 7 meters between the land and the adjacent road. Prospective buyers should be aware that land development may incur substantial earthwork and preparation costs. A definitive land survey and elevation survey have not been conducted. Additional costs, including property title transfer registration fees, mortgage registration fees, and stamp duty for the contract, will be the responsibility of the buyer. The property will be transferred in its current "as-is" condition, with the seller exempt from liability for any contractual non-conformities.
The Ohzato area is a well-established residential neighborhood in central Okinawa, known for its community atmosphere. An interesting local fact is that Okinawa City, where this land is located, is home to the second-largest U.S. military base in Japan, Kadena Air Base, which has significantly influenced the local culture and economy. The closest major tourist attraction is the Okinawa Zoo & Museum (Okinawa Kodomo no Kuni), a popular family destination featuring a wide variety of animals, botanical gardens, and museums, located just a short drive away.
