Land for Sale in Nakagusuku Village with Sea Views
According to the agent's special notes, there is a critical legal detail to consider: there is an application under Article 5 of the Agricultural Land Law (農地法第5条申請有り). This indicates that the land is currently classified as agricultural land, and any change in its use or ownership for non-agricultural purposes requires official permission from the relevant authorities. Prospective buyers must thoroughly investigate the status and implications of this application.
The land is officially registered as farmland (畑) and is situated within a City Planning Area designated as an "Urbanization Control Area" (市街化調整区域). This zoning typically restricts development to preserve the natural and agricultural environment. The plot has road frontage to the east on a 3-meter wide road. The maximum building coverage ratio is 60% and the floor area ratio is 200%.
The area of Nakagusuku Village is rich in history, being home to the UNESCO World Heritage site of Nakagusuku Castle Ruins, a stunning example of Ryukyuan gusuku architecture perched on a hill with panoramic views. A short drive away, the vibrant city of Uruma offers modern amenities and access to the scenic Katsuren Peninsula.
