Spacious Corner Plot with Existing Structure in Central Takaoka
This property presents a rare opportunity in the heart of Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture. The land is a generous 404.33 square meters (approximately 122.3 tsubo), offering substantial space in an urban setting. The plot is a corner lot with road frontage of 7.5 meters on the west side, providing excellent access and visibility. The land is designated for residential use within the urbanization promotion area, with a building-to-land ratio of 80% and a floor area ratio of 300%, allowing for significant development potential.
According to the agent's notes, a key feature of this property is the presence of an old house, which will be transferred in its current condition. Furthermore, the price was significantly reduced in December of Reiwa 6 (2024), from 10 million yen to the current asking price of 5 million yen, representing a substantial opportunity for a buyer.
The location is highly convenient, just a 12-minute walk from Katamachi Station on the Manyosen Line, connecting residents to central Takaoka and beyond. The property is fully serviced with city water, sewer, gas, and electricity, and side ditches are in place, making it ready for development or renovation.
The area of Takaoka is rich in history and culture, famously known for its high-quality copperware, Takaoka casting. An interesting local fact is that the city is home to the Great Buddha of Takaoka (Takaoka Daibutsu), one of Japan's three great bronze Buddha statues, a testament to the city's long-standing metalworking heritage. The closest major landmark is the stunning Zuiryū-ji Temple, a National Treasure and a masterpiece of Edo-period Zen architecture located just a short distance away.
