Spacious Commercial-Residential Property in Motobu with Tourism Potential
This unique property in the Hamamoto area of Motobu Town, Okinawa, presents a versatile opportunity for both living and business. The building, constructed in September 2014, is a single-story concrete block structure with a total floor area of 105.34 m² (approximately 31.87 tsubo). It features a 3LDK layout, comprising a 15.6-tatami mat combined living-dining-kitchen area, a 7.6-tatami Western-style room, a 6-tatami Western-style room, and a 3.8-tatami Western-style room, with the additional potential for a shop or office space.
The property sits on a generous 811 m² (245.33 tsubo) plot of land, classified as wilderness, with no private road maintenance burden and full ownership rights. The urban planning area is unspecified, and the building-to-land ratio is 60% with a floor area ratio of 200%. The location offers excellent convenience, being only about a 4-minute walk from the "Mejjafu" bus stop. A key feature highlighted in the agent's notes is that the property is located in an area where a ryokan (inn) business license can be obtained, making it a viable candidate for operating a minpaku (private lodging) business, capitalizing on the local tourism.
The area is a popular tourist destination in Motobu Town. A major and iconic attraction is the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, one of the largest and most famous aquariums in the world, located just an approximate 5-minute drive from the property. This prime location offers easy access not only to this world-renowned site but also to the towns of Nago and Nakijin. The combination of residential comfort, commercial flexibility, and proximity to a major tourist hub makes this an exceptional investment for those looking to engage with Okinawa's vibrant tourism sector or establish a home-based enterprise.
