Sloping Land Parcel in Niigata's Akiha Ward
This listing is for a 579-square-meter (approximately 175.14 tsubo) plot of land located in Akiha 3-chome, Niigata City, Niigata Prefecture. The property is classified as wilderness (current status: miscellaneous land) and is situated on a slope. A critical note from the agent explicitly states that due to the sloping terrain, building construction is not possible. The optimal uses for this land are as a field, agricultural land, or for similar purposes.
Essential utilities including propane gas, electricity, water supply, sewerage, and side ditches are available. Special notes highlight the property's proximity to mountains, its location in a villa area, its suitability for a home vegetable garden, and its elevated positioning. Important remarks include an annual fixed asset tax and city planning tax of 25,700 yen, a disclaimer for non-conforming contract liability, and clarification that it is not designated as a landslide disaster warning zone. The land was acquired through inheritance, and as the site has not been recently confirmed, boundary lines cannot be explicitly marked, though a land survey map from the Showa 40s (1965-1974) is available. The agent suggests using the land for a home vegetable garden or orchard.
The area is within Niigata's Akiha Ward, a region known for its natural scenery and historical sites. An interesting local fact is that the nearby city of Nagaoka is famous for its spectacular annual fireworks festival, one of Japan's largest and most renowned. The closest major tourist attraction is the historic Niigata Saito Villa, a beautiful Japanese garden and former residence of a wealthy merchant family, offering a serene escape into traditional landscape architecture.
