Green Village Oku Phase 8: A Prime Residential Plot in Setouchi, Okayama
This listing presents a prime residential plot, Lot 19, within the Green Village Oku Phase 8 development in Setouchi City, Okayama Prefecture. This is one of 27 brand-new plots being subdivided in the Oku Elementary School area. The land is a level, rectangular plot with a total area of 178.37 square meters (approximately 53.96 tsubo). As a seller-direct property from the development company, associated purchase costs are kept lower.
The property's infrastructure and condition are clearly detailed. The equipment and facilities include Propane gas, public water supply, a septic tank, side ditches, and electricity. The land is currently vacant and ready for immediate construction upon transfer. A key feature is the favorable road access: it has frontage on two sides (excluding corner lots), with a 5-meter wide public road to the south and another 5-meter wide public road to the north, both paved, providing excellent accessibility and an open feel. The total development area for the entire project is 7,977.05 square meters.
The location offers great convenience, with Oku Station on the Ako Line just a 7-minute walk (560m) away, providing easy rail access. Daily shopping needs are well catered for with multiple supermarkets including Hallo's Oku Store (320m), Yume Town Oku (690m), and Zag Zag Oku Store (410m) all within easy reach.
The area is part of the scenic Setouchi region, known for its beautiful inland sea. An interesting local fact is that Setouchi City was formed from the merger of several towns, including Oku, and is part of the wider Seto Inland Sea National Park, Japan's first national park designated for its maritime landscape. The closest major tourist attraction is the historic town of Kurashiki, famous for its beautifully preserved Edo-period canal area, the Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter, which is approximately a 30-minute drive away and offers a glimpse into Japan's merchant past.
