City Garden Meguro Sengoku: A Prime Development Plot in Tokyo
This is a prime development plot offered as a building-conditioned land sale by Sumitomo Realty & Development, a major integrated developer. The plot is located in the desirable Meguro Ward, just a 3-minute walk from Sengoku Station on the Tokyu Meguro Line, offering excellent access to central Tokyo.
Critical agent notes provide essential details. The land does not require a development permit application. It is subject to various legal restrictions including the Landscape Act, Aeronautics Act, Height District regulations, Quasi-Fireproof Zone designation, maximum height limits, minimum lot area requirements, and sunlight obstruction regulations. Crucially, this is a building-conditioned land parcel. The condition of sale is that within 3 months of signing the land purchase agreement, a building contract must be concluded with Sumitomo Realty Housing. If this deadline passes, the contract will be terminated and all land payments (including application deposits and earnest money) will be promptly refunded. Please note that distance indications are approximate measurements from a map, and walking times are calculated by rounding up, using 80 meters as 1 minute.
The plot itself is a generous 331.74 square meters, situated in a low-rise residential area with a front road over 6 meters wide. The designated land use is Category I Exclusive Low-Rise Residential Zone within an urbanization promotion area. The plot ratio is 100% with a building coverage ratio of 50%. Utilities are readily available from Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), Tokyo Gas, and the public water supply.
The Sengoku area is a quiet, residential neighborhood known for its charming atmosphere. An interesting local fact is that the name "Sengoku" (洗足), which means "foot-washing," is said to originate from a historical incident where a feudal lord washed his feet in a local stream. The area provides a peaceful retreat while being well-connected. The closest major landmark is the expansive and beautiful Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden, a short train ride away, offering a stunning blend of traditional Japanese, English landscape, and French formal gardens.
