Prime Residential Land in Kurashiki's Mabi District
This 224.94 sqm (approximately 68.04 tsubo) plot of land is a prime residential development opportunity located in the Mabi area of Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture. The property boasts an excellent location, being just a 4-minute walk (320m) from Kibimabi Station on the Ibara Railway line, offering convenient access. The site is also a mere 3-minute walk from the Mabi Branch Office, adding to its convenience for daily life.
The land is designated as residential land within a City Planning Area's urbanization zone, specifically zoned as a Category I Exclusive Residential District. This zoning permits a building coverage ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 200%, providing ample scope for construction. The terrain is gently sloped, and the plot itself is a regular rectangular shape, which simplifies architectural planning and design. The property is sold as vacant land, ready for development.
Critical infrastructure is already in place, with connections to public water supply, sewerage, and side ditches for drainage. Important legal notes for the property include provisions under Article 43 of the Building Standards Act (with exceptions) and Article 22 of the same act. The land is also situated within a Type 3 Permission Area, which are essential details for any prospective builder to review with local authorities.
The surrounding area of Mabi in Kurashiki is rich in history and culture, named after the famous 8th-century scholar and statesman, Kibi no Makibi. A major landmark and popular tourist destination nearby is the historic Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter, known for its beautifully preserved Edo-period merchant houses and willow-lined canals, offering a glimpse into Japan's past.
