Spacious Family Home in a Quiet Saitama Neighborhood
This well-presented single-family home, located in the peaceful residential area of Togashi, Ageo City, Saitama Prefecture, offers a comfortable and practical living space. The property features a generous 4SLDK layout, providing four bedrooms alongside a living, dining, and kitchen area. The building area is 129.05 sqm (approximately 39 tsubo), with a total land area of 132.82 sqm (approximately 40.17 tsubo). Built in September 1990, this two-story wooden structure is currently occupied and comes with parking space availability (subject to vehicle type).
The home boasts excellent sunlight and ventilation due to its southeast and northwest road frontage. Storage is ample, featuring a service room (nando) and a walk-in closet. The location is highly convenient, with a supermarket within a 10-minute walk and access to two train lines via the Takasaki Line and Shonan-Shinjuku Line at Miyahara Station, followed by a 14-minute bus ride and an 8-minute walk.
Critical information from the agent's notes: The property is located within a City Planning Act Urbanization Control Area. In principle, construction of buildings is not permitted in such areas. If new construction of a building is to be undertaken, a development permit under Article 29 of the City Planning Act or a building permit under Article 43, based on the contents of each prefecture's ordinances, is required. (A building confirmation based on the Building Standards Act is also separately necessary.) However, as this property falls under Article 34, Item 11 of the City Planning Act, there is a possibility that building confirmation can be obtained for buildings within the scope determined by the specific administrative agency through a development permit under Article 29 or Article 43 of the City Planning Act. To reiterate: Urbanization Control Area. Building construction is, in principle, not allowed. However, if a building permit is obtained, building construction is possible.
The surrounding area of Ageo offers a blend of suburban tranquility and accessibility. An interesting local fact is that Ageo was historically a major post-station town on the Nakasendo road during the Edo period. For recreation and tourism, the area provides relatively easy access to the bustling metropolis of Saitama City and its famous attractions, such as the historic Hikawa Shrine, one of the oldest and most significant Shinto shrines in the Kanto region.
