Forest Field Tatsuta: A New Development in Ikaruga, Nara
Forest Field Tatsuta is a new residential land development offering 11 plots, with 7 currently available for sale. This development presents a rare opportunity to build a custom home in the historic and scenic town of Ikaruga, Nara Prefecture. The plots range in size from approximately 165.54 square meters to 210.16 square meters, with each lot exceeding 50 tsubo (approx. 165 sq m), providing ample space for a spacious and comfortable family home with generous garden areas.
As per the agent's notes, the development is already completed, and the construction company has been omitted from the details. A critical point for potential buyers to note is the special remark regarding the seller's availability: Regular holidays are every Wednesday and Thursday. This means inquiries and site visits should be scheduled outside these days.
The land is sold with a construction condition attached, meaning the purchase contract is contingent upon signing a building contract with a designated contractor within a specified period. This ensures a cohesive neighborhood aesthetic and quality. The development is fully serviced with Kansai Electric Power, city gas, public water supply, and individual septic systems. A one-time water connection fee of 249,200 yen (for a 20mm pipe) applies. The area is zoned as Category I Medium-to-High Rise Residential and Category I Residential under the urbanization plan, ensuring a peaceful living environment with a building-to-land ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 200%.
The surrounding area of Ikaruga is steeped in history and natural beauty. An interesting fact about the region is that it is home to Horyu-ji, a Buddhist temple complex founded in 607 AD and recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for safeguarding some of the world's oldest surviving wooden structures. The closest major landmark is the iconic Horyu-ji Temple, a testament to ancient Japanese architecture and spiritual heritage, located just a short drive from the development site. Residents can enjoy a lifestyle that blends modern convenience with profound historical atmosphere.
