Spacious Land Plot in Uruma City with Coastal Access and Development Potential
This expansive land plot, located in the Gushikawa area of Uruma City, Okinawa, offers a generous 525.05 square meters (approximately 158.82 tsubo) of space. The property is attractively priced at 18,000,000 JPY and features a wide frontage of approximately 33 meters, providing excellent potential for a custom build. The location masterfully blends a peaceful, relaxed atmosphere with everyday convenience, being just a 3-minute drive from the popular San-A Yosen City shopping complex and within a 10-minute walk to the sea.
Critical agent notes provide essential information for prospective buyers. The property falls within the school districts for Gushikawa Elementary School and Gushikawa Higashi Junior High School. Importantly, several legal and development requirements apply: an application under Article 5 of the Agricultural Land Law is required, a setback is necessary, and clearing/land preparation work is also needed. These are crucial factors to consider in the purchase and development process.
The area of Gushikawa in Uruma City offers a taste of authentic Okinawan life away from the major tourist hubs, yet remains well-connected. An interesting local fact is that Uruma City was formed from the merger of several towns, including Gushikawa, and is named after the Uruma period, a prehistoric era in Okinawan history. The closest major tourist attraction is the iconic Katsuren Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site with stunning ocean views, located a short drive away on the Katsuren Peninsula.
