Open Live's Zoshigaya Access: A Prime Development Plot in Tokyo's Bustling Toshima Ward
This vacant land plot, named Open Live's Zoshigaya Access, presents a rare opportunity for development in the highly sought-after Toshima Ward of Tokyo. The property is a 61.01 square meter plot facing a road on its southeast side and comes with no pre-set construction conditions, offering significant freedom for the future owner to design and build a custom home. A reference plan for a house with a 17-tatami mat LDK (living, dining, kitchen) area is available for consideration.
Critical details from the agent's notes have been translated for clarity. The land does not require a development permit application. The sale is without construction conditions and is located within a land readjustment project regulation zone and a new fire prevention district. The property's effective building area excludes a portion of 0.83 m² and includes a setback portion of 1.16 m². The management reference number for this plot is 598245.
The location offers excellent connectivity, being just an 8-minute walk from Tokyo Metro's Gokokuji Station on the Yurakucho Line and a 10-minute walk from Zoshigaya Station on the Fukutoshin Line. The major JR Ikebukuro Station is approximately a 20-minute walk away, providing access to multiple JR lines. The area is well-serviced with a supermarket within 651 meters and a kindergarten just 155 meters away.
The surrounding Toshima area is a dynamic blend of residential calm and urban excitement. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Zoshigaya neighborhood is historically known for its quiet, almost village-like atmosphere amidst the metropolis, once being a popular residential area for writers and intellectuals. The closest major landmark is the iconic Sunshine City complex in Ikebukuro, one of Tokyo's largest urban entertainment and shopping hubs, featuring an aquarium, observatory, and numerous shops and restaurants.
