Sunny Wooded Land Near the Tochigi Border in Fukushima
This property is a large, sunny plot of wooded land located near the border between Tochigi and Fukushima prefectures. The site faces southwest, ensuring excellent sunlight exposure, making it suitable for uses such as a campsite. The area offers good transportation access, with the city center of Shirakawa and the popular Nasu Highlands both within easy driving distance, providing convenient access to shopping and amenities.
The land is situated along the Kurokawa River, a first-class river that marks the prefectural border. The property is on the Fukushima side. Infrastructure has been prepared on the site, as buildings previously existed on the southern part of the land. This makes it feasible to consider the plot for residential use as a housing site following further development.
Key equipment and features include access to electricity. However, a well will need to be drilled, and a Johkasou (private sewage treatment tank) is required. The property is also equipped with a propane gas (PG) system. A special note is that there are two registered buildings that no longer exist on the property. Importantly, the land value is below the tax exemption threshold, meaning no fixed asset tax is levied.
The surrounding area is part of Fukushima's scenic countryside, known as the gateway to the Tohoku region. An interesting local fact is that the nearby city of Shirakawa is historically famous for its castle and its role as a key post-station town on the important Oshu Kaido highway during the Edo period. The closest major landmark is the majestic Nasu Mountain Range, a volcanic group popular for hiking, hot springs, and outdoor recreation, located a short drive away.
