Land for Sale in Okayama City's Higashi Ward: A Rural Setting with Development Potential
This 209.14 sqm (approximately 63.26 tsubo) plot of land is located in the Shukugo area of Higashi Ward, Okayama City, Okayama Prefecture. The property is situated in a peaceful, rural environment surrounded by rice paddies, yet offers convenient access to daily necessities. Two convenience stores, a Seven-Eleven and a Daily Yamazaki, are within a 2-minute walk, making small shopping trips extremely convenient. Approximately 2 kilometers away, a cluster of facilities including Ryobi Platz, Daiso, a coin laundry, and a home center are accessible within about 10 minutes by bicycle or 5 minutes by car.
The property is classified as "Zasshuchi" (miscellaneous land) and is located within a City Planning Area designated as an "Urbanization Control Area." This is a critical detail: land development and building construction are not permitted on this plot under normal circumstances. However, if intended for use as residential land, individual development permission is required under national laws and prefectural/city ordinances. The agent notes specify that the land is eligible for development under the "20-unit continuous development system" (20戸連たん制度), subject to prior consultation. This means coordinated development with neighboring plots may unlock its potential.
Essential utilities are available, including propane gas, a public water supply, and a septic tank (jokaso) system. Important additional costs are noted: a personal development application fee of ¥380,000 is required separately. Future residents must follow neighborhood association instructions regarding garbage station placement. The land is gently sloped and currently vacant.
