Spacious Land Parcel in a Quiet Residential Area of Okinawa's Yaese Town
This substantial 1,871 square meter (approximately 566 tsubo) plot of land is available for purchase in the Higashi Kazahira district of Yaese Town, Okinawa. Currently utilized as farmland, the property presents a significant development opportunity subject to obtaining the necessary legal permissions. A key requirement noted by the agent is the need for an application under Article 5 of the Agricultural Land Law (要農地法5条申請), which is an essential first step for any potential change in land use.
The land is situated in a quiet residential neighborhood, within walking distance of local elementary and junior high schools, and is also conveniently close to a sports park. The property is designated as farmland (地目畑) and falls within an Urbanization Control Area (市街化調整区域), with no specific land use zone assigned. It has a favorable building coverage ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 200%. The plot is flat, has access to public water supply, and fronts a 7.5-meter-wide road to the north. There are no private road maintenance burdens. The transaction will be handled as an exclusive and dedicated intermediary contract (専属専任媒介).
The area of Yaese Town offers a blend of suburban tranquility and accessibility. An interesting local fact is that the town is home to the significant historical site of Chinen Castle Ruins, a former Ryukyuan gusuku. For a major tourist attraction, the world-renowned Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, one of the largest aquariums globally, is approximately a 45-minute drive north, offering a spectacular glimpse into the marine life of the Kuroshio Sea.
