Prime Development Land with Existing House in Kagoshima's Taniyama District
This property presents a valuable opportunity in the sought-after Taniyama area of Kagoshima City. The land is a well-shaped corner lot with a total area of 194.65 square meters (approximately 58.88 tsubo), offering excellent potential for development or renovation. The location is exceptionally convenient, being just a 3-minute walk from JR Taniyama Station on the Ibusuki Makurazaki Line, providing easy access to central Kagoshima and beyond.
Critical agent notes provide essential details. The current status notes: "There is an old house. If you would like to see it in person for free, please feel free to contact us with your preferred date." Further remarks specify: "Setback required... approximately 2.2 square meters. There is an existing structure... a two-story wooden building with cement tile roofing, 108.85 square meters, built in November 1967 (Showa 42)." This indicates the presence of a sizable, older structure that buyers may choose to renovate or remove, subject to the noted setback requirement from the road.
The land is zoned as Category 1 Residential District within the urbanization promotion area, with a building-to-land ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 200%. The terrain is flat, and the property rights are full ownership. The land fronts two public roads, with frontages of 11 meters on the southwest side and 15 meters on the northwest side.
The Taniyama district is a well-established residential area known for its local shopping streets and community atmosphere. An interesting local fact is its proximity to the active volcano Sakurajima, whose iconic, often smoke-plumed silhouette is a defining feature of Kagoshima's landscape, earning the city the nickname "Naples of the Eastern World." The closest major tourist attraction is the historic Sengan-en Garden, a UNESCO World Heritage site and former villa of the Shimazu clan, located approximately 6 kilometers north, offering stunning views of Sakurajima across the bay.
