Vacant Land Plot in Iwanai Town, Hokkaido
This vacant land plot, located in the serene town of Iwanai in Hokkaido, presents a prime opportunity for building a custom home. The property is a spacious 470.57 square meters (approximately 142.34 tsubo) of clear, level land, ready for immediate construction and transfer of ownership. It is designated as residential land (宅地) and is equipped with essential utilities including water supply, sewerage, city gas, and electricity, with side ditches already in place.
According to the agent's special notes, a critical requirement for any construction on this site is a 25cm setback from Town Road 126. This is an essential regulatory detail that must be factored into building plans. The property is situated in a Quasi-Urban Area with a Quasi-Industrial zoning designation, offering a building-to-land ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 200%.
The location offers convenient access via the local "Nottaline" circular bus service, with the Iwanobashi bus stop just a 3-minute walk away. Iwanai Town is known for its stunning coastal scenery and is part of the Shakotan Peninsula, renowned for its dramatic cliffs and clear waters. An interesting local fact is that Iwanai was once a major herring fishing port, and its historic merchant houses reflect this prosperous past. The area is a gateway to the natural beauty of Niseko, a world-famous ski resort and mountain destination approximately an hour's drive away, offering year-round outdoor activities.
