Prime Residential Plot in Kurashiki, Okayama with Sekisui House Construction Condition
This listing presents a rare opportunity to acquire a premium residential plot in the desirable Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture. The land is part of a small development of seven total plots, with three currently available for sale. Each plot offers a generous land area ranging from approximately 154.36 to 155.18 square meters, providing ample space for a custom-built family home.
Critical details from the agent's notes are provided for full transparency. The Equipment/Facilities status is noted as "Completed (Plots 3, 4, 5)", indicating the site preparation for these specific plots is finished. The Special Notes/Remarks contain two essential conditions: "Utility poles cannot be relocated." and "The land sale contract for this subdivision plot will only take effect on the condition that a construction work contract is concluded with the sales agent, Sekisui House Co., Ltd., within three months of signing the contract. If the construction work contract is not concluded by the deadline, the land sale contract will be definitively nullified, and any received deposits will be promptly refunded in full without interest." This is a classic "建築条件付土地" (land with construction condition), where the purchase is contingent upon signing a building contract with the designated builder, Sekisui House, within a specified period.
The property is promoted with Sekisui House's advanced construction technologies, including the "Seekus" seismic damping structure designed to withstand magnitude 7 earthquakes, the "Dynamic Frame System" for safety and design freedom, and the "Shawood Premium" construction method. The home built here can aim for the "Green First Zero" standard, focusing on energy creation and savings. The build comes with a robust 30-year initial warranty on the structural frame and waterproofing, extendable via the unique "U-Trust System."
