This listing presents a residential land plot for sale in Nishioji, Hino Town, Gamo District, Shiga Prefecture. The property is a level, regularly shaped plot with a total land area of 216 square meters (approximately 65.34 tsubo). It is designated as forest land (yama-rin) under the current registry, but its optimal use is for residential purposes. The property is located in an area without a specified use district and falls under an Urban Planning Adjustment Area. The building coverage ratio is 70% and the floor area ratio is 200%.

Key equipment and infrastructure details include Propane gas, a water supply system, and a septic tank. Regarding the water supply, while there is piping on the front road, there is no piping within the property itself. After paying the water supply connection fee and additional connection charges, Hino Town will be responsible for installing the connection up to the tap. The area is not within a sewerage plan zone, so a septic tank is required, for which a subsidy system is available.

There are no building covenants or conditions attached to the sale.
