Grancia Higashimurayama: A New Development in a Growing Tokyo Suburb
This listing presents Grancia Higashimurayama, a new land subdivision with building conditions, located in the evolving suburb of Higashimurayama City, Tokyo. The development consists of four plots, each exceeding 120 square meters, offering spacious and regularly shaped lots that provide ample flexibility for home design. The property is situated on a quiet road with low traffic and good visibility, ensuring easy vehicle access.
According to the agent's notes, the listed price does not include building costs. The land is subject to several regulations, including being in a quasi-fire prevention zone and a Category 1 Height Control District, with a minimum lot size requirement of 110 sqm. It also falls under the Tokyo Metropolitan Building Safety Ordinance, Tokyo Landscape Ordinance, the Land Readjustment and Specific Embankment Regulation Law, and the Agricultural Land Law. A portion of the public road is shared, with an ownership stake of 117 sqm multiplied by 1670/11762. Importantly, the land does not require a development permit application.
The area is well-served by public transport, with Kumegawa Station on the Seibu Shinjuku Line a 15-minute walk away and Higashimurayama Station (serving the Seibu Shinjuku, Seibu Kokubunji, and Seibu Seibuen Lines) a 16-minute walk. This provides access to three train lines, including limited express services. The neighborhood is family-friendly, with Ohdai Elementary School just a 1-minute walk, Higashimurayama Fifth Junior High School an 8-minute walk, and Amanomi Kindergarten a 5-minute walk away. Shopping is convenient with Ozamurare and Inageya supermarkets within an 8-minute walk. The development promotes energy-efficient living with Net Zero Energy House (ZEH) standard specifications as a standard feature.
Higashimurayama City is undergoing redevelopment, enhancing its amenities and infrastructure. An interesting local fact is that the city is home to the historic Toshimaen amusement park site, which is being transformed into a Warner Bros.-themed park, adding a major future tourist attraction to the western Tokyo area. For current recreation, residents can easily visit the iconic Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden, a vast and beautiful park blending Japanese, English, and French garden styles, located within a reasonable train journey.
