Prime Residential Land in Kurashiki, Okayama
This residential land parcel, located in the Nakasho Danchi area of Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture, offers a prime opportunity for building a custom home. The flat, rectangular plot spans 174.07 square meters (approximately 52.66 tsubo) and is situated within a designated Urbanization Area under the First Category Medium-to-High-Rise Residential Exclusive Use Zone, with a building coverage ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 200%.
Critical infrastructure is readily available, with the property connected to propane gas, city water supply, and sewer systems. The site fronts a 15-meter-wide public road to the north, with a paved frontage of 7.5 meters. Important notes from the agent include the presence of one utility pole within the property boundaries. While a gas pipe runs along the northern frontage road, there is currently no direct connection pipe to the lot. Additionally, the pathway on the eastern side is owned by the prefecture and is not considered a road under the Building Standards Act, which is a crucial detail for planning access and construction.
The location is highly convenient for daily life. Nakasho Elementary School and Kita Junior High School are both within a 14-minute walk, while supermarkets, drugstores, and popular retailer Seria are within a 10-minute walking radius. Public transport is accessible via the Shoden Nakasho Danchi Nishi bus stop, just a 2-minute walk away. For broader travel, Nakasho Station on the Sanyo Main Line is approximately a 35-minute walk or a short drive.
The Kurashiki area is rich in culture and history. A short trip will bring you to the famous Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter, a beautifully preserved canal area with white-walled warehouses, museums, and willow-lined paths offering a glimpse into the Edo period. This charming district, a major tourist attraction, is perfect for weekend strolls and cultural exploration.
