Land for Sale in Matsuyama with Existing Old House
According to the agent's special notes, the current condition of the property includes an existing old house. The agent explicitly encourages potential buyers to arrange a viewing, stating: "There is an old house. Please feel free to contact us for a free viewing on your preferred date." This indicates the property is likely a fixer-upper or renovation project, ideal for someone looking to restore an older structure or build anew on a cleared plot. The land is designated as residential land (宅地) within a commercial neighborhood zone (近鄰商業地域), allowing for a building coverage ratio of 80% and a floor area ratio of 200%.
The location offers convenient daily access, with the Yanagihara bus stop a 2-minute walk away and JR Yanagihara Station within a 5-minute walk, providing a direct link to the broader Matsuyama rail network. The property is free from the notification requirements of the National Land Use Law, simplifying the purchase process. A fascinating fact about the Matsuyama area is that it is home to Dogo Onsen, one of Japan's oldest hot spring resorts, famously mentioned in the Nara-period chronicle "Manyoshu." The closest major tourist attraction from this property is the historic Matsuyama Castle, a magnificent hilltop fortress offering panoramic views of the city and the Seto Inland Sea.
