Property Overview in Uto City, Kumamoto
This property, listed on the Kumamoto Prefecture Akiya Bank, presents a unique opportunity for buyers looking to build a new home on a substantial plot of land. The property is currently under negotiation as of May 25, 2026, with an application already received, and no secondary applications can be accepted. It is recommended that the existing building be demolished due to its poor condition, and the sales price has been reduced accordingly to account for the anticipated demolition costs.
The land comprises a residential lot of 308.48 square meters, along with two adjacent agricultural plots measuring 395 square meters and 266 square meters respectively. It is important to note that part of the adjacent farmland is designated as a sediment disaster warning zone (specifically for steep slope collapse). The front road is a public path (satomichi), so permits and applications will be necessary for any reconstruction. For those interested in a viewing, an application must be submitted via the Uto City website using the provided link. The property has been vacant since around 2004 and requires significant repairs.
