Spacious Vacant Land Plot in Chikujo Town, Fukuoka
This property is a substantial vacant land plot located in the Akahata district of Chikujo Town, Fukuoka Prefecture. The land offers a generous area of 874.4 square meters (approximately 264.5 tsubo), presenting a blank canvas for development. The key feature of this listing is that it is offered as cleared land (更地渡). The existing structure is scheduled to be demolished by the owner prior to transfer, ensuring the buyer receives a ready-to-build plot.
Critical information from the agent notes includes available subsidies. The property is eligible for the Chikujo Town Vacant House and Vacant Land Bank Project subsidy. However, it is important to note that if the property is transferred in its current state without demolition, subsidies for renovating or remodeling the vacant house cannot be utilized. These renovation subsidies are only applicable if the land is cleared for new construction.
The location provides practical access, with the JR Nippo Main Line's Chikujo Station approximately a 9-minute drive away and Shiota Station about an 8-minute drive. Local community bus service is accessible via a 3-minute walk to the Akahata bus stop. The plot is a corner lot with full infrastructure in place, including water supply, sewerage, town gas, electricity, and side ditches. There are no building conditions attached, and immediate transfer is possible.
Chikujo Town is situated in the northeastern part of Fukuoka Prefecture, an area known for its serene rural landscapes and historical connections to the ancient province of Buzen. An interesting local fact is that the town's name, "Chikujo," is derived from "Chikujo-jo," a castle built in the early 17th century by the famous warlord Hosokawa Tadaoki. While the castle itself is largely gone, its historical legacy shapes the area. The closest major tourist attraction is the iconic Kokura Castle in the neighboring city of Kitakyushu, a beautifully reconstructed castle keep offering panoramic views and a deep dive into samurai history.
