Land for Sale in Fukaya, Saitama: A Residential Development Opportunity
This listing presents a substantial plot of land for sale in the Honcho area of Fukaya City, Saitama Prefecture. The property consists of two separate lots being sold together: Lot A is approximately 195.97 tsubo (647.83 sqm) and is priced at 2,000,000 yen, while Lot B is 18 tsubo. The land is designated as residential land and is currently vacant, ready for development. The site is flat, making construction straightforward.
Critical agent notes provide essential details for potential buyers. The 'Special Notes/Remarks' section states: 'Road Access Details: One-sided road access to the north, width 6m, public road.' Furthermore, 'Remarks 1' specifies: 'Site preparation work, installation of boundary blocks, and construction work for water supply, drainage, gas, electricity, etc., are to be borne by the buyer.' This is a crucial consideration, as the purchase price is for the land only, with significant additional investment required for infrastructure installation before building can commence.
The property is located in a City Planning Area designated as an 'Urbanization Control Area,' which typically restricts development to preserve the surrounding environment and control urban sprawl. The land use district is unspecified, with a building-to-land ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 200%. The land rights are full ownership (freehold).
The area of Fukaya is known for its agricultural heritage, particularly its production of deep-fried snacks and negi (green onions). A major landmark and significant tourist attraction in the region is the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Tomioka Silk Mill, located in the neighboring city of Tomioka, Gunma Prefecture. This historic site offers a fascinating glimpse into Japan's industrial modernization during the Meiji era.
