Dream Town Yamada Minami Yamada-cho: A Premier Land Development in Kyoto
Dream Town Yamada Minami Yamada-cho Block 15 is a substantial new land development offering 15 spacious plots in the desirable Nishikyo Ward of Kyoto. This is a building-conditioned land sale, meaning the purchase is contingent on signing a building contract with the designated contractor within a specified period. The development features three currently available plots (Lots 12, 13, and 14), each over 30 tsubo (approximately 102-104 sqm) and situated on corner lots with excellent sunlight and ventilation. Each plot fronts a newly constructed, spacious 6-meter-wide road, allowing easy passage for vehicles.
According to the agent's detailed notes, the development permit number is 5011. The agent emphasizes a flexible and comprehensive consultation and viewing process. Same-day viewings are possible via internet reservation. The process involves three steps: initial consultation to discuss the property's pros, cons, and insider information; schedule adjustment for viewings available on weekdays, weekends, holidays, or after work; and the viewing itself. The agent offers three tailored viewing courses: a quick 30-minute onsite tour focusing on the layout; a thorough 1-hour tour including equipment and features; and a comprehensive 2-hour tour that covers the layout, equipment, and surrounding environment by car, visiting anticipated family facilities like elementary schools, supermarkets, and libraries. The agent also welcomes loan consultations and other requests. Their business hours are 9:00-19:00.
The proposed homes for these plots are spacious 3LDK layouts with features like dishwashers, three-burner stoves, grill ranges, TV monitor intercoms, bath reheating functions, bathroom heater/dryers, vanity mirrors with cabinets, and washlet toilets. The designs allow for custom floor plans, exterior colors, and interior wallpapers/flooring. Each plot can accommodate parking for two cars. The area is conveniently located within walking distance of amenities like Gourmet City Kamiatsuri supermarket (7 min walk), Shoyo Elementary School (5 min walk), and Nishimine Nursery School (3 min walk).
The Nishikyo Ward area offers a peaceful residential setting while maintaining access to the rich cultural heart of Kyoto. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Katsuragawa River is part of a historic canal system that once powered water mills for producing Kyoto's famous traditional Japanese paper, washi. The closest major tourist attraction is the iconic Kinkaku-ji Temple, the stunning Golden Pavilion, a UNESCO World Heritage site located a short drive or bus ride away, offering a breathtaking glimpse into Japan's architectural and spiritual heritage.
