Open Live's West Tachibana: A Prime Development Plot in Sumida, Tokyo
This listing presents a rare opportunity to acquire a plot of land in the sought-after Sumida Ward of Tokyo. The property, known as Open Live's West Tachibana, consists of two development-ready lots. The land area for each plot ranges from 48.53 to 51.49 square meters, offering a compact yet valuable canvas for building a custom home. The location is highly accessible, with Tōbu Railway's Higashi-Azuma Station just an 800-meter walk away, JR Hirai Station within 1,120 meters, and Keisei Hikifune Station approximately 1,600 meters distant, providing multiple public transport options.
Critical agent notes have been provided for this property. The equipment and facilities are noted as follows: "No facilities due to land not requiring development permit application." This indicates the land is ready for construction without the need for a separate development permit, streamlining the building process. The special remarks and features are: "No construction conditions / Landscape Act / Land readjustment work regulation area / New fire prevention zone / Management number: 597165." This is crucial information for potential buyers. The absence of construction conditions means you are free to choose any house builder or architect without restrictions. However, the land is subject to the Landscape Act, falls within a land readjustment work regulation zone, and is designated as a new fire prevention zone, which will influence architectural design and material choices to meet specific aesthetic and safety codes.
The area of Sumida Ward is rich in culture and modern attractions. It is famously home to the Tokyo Skytree, one of the world's tallest towers, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the metropolis. The ward also boasts the historic Sumida River, along which the spectacular Sumida River Fireworks Festival is held annually. For a unique local experience, the Edo-Tokyo Museum provides deep insights into the region's history from the Edo period to modern times.
This plot is ideal for investors or individuals looking to build a personalized residence in a well-connected, regulated urban environment. With clear land titles (ownership rights), available city gas, and public water/sewer connections, the infrastructure is in place for a straightforward development project. The zoning is for quasi-industrial use within an urbanization promotion area, offering flexibility for certain types of residential-commercial designs.
