According to the agent's notes, the property is near a river and is flat land. A critical special note is that while the area is within a city planning zone, the current land classification is "field" (畑). Therefore, an application under Article 5 of the Agricultural Land Act is required for development. All costs associated with this application, development permits, and any agricultural land withdrawal fees will be the buyer's responsibility. The property is sold "as-is" (現状有姿渡し), meaning the buyer bears all costs for clearing bamboo grass, trees, and other vegetation. The transaction area is based on the public registry, and surveying and registration fees are also the buyer's responsibility. There is a required setback of 12 square meters.
The location offers excellent access to recreation. The Naruto Otsuka Sports Park is just a 5-minute walk (350m) away. For daily needs, home improvement stores like Home Plaza Nafco Naruto and K's Denki are within walking distance. The property is approximately a 26-minute walk from Naruto Station on the Naruto Line.
The Naruto area is famous for its powerful whirlpools in the Naruto Strait, a major natural tourist attraction. A fascinating local fact is that these whirlpools, some of the largest in the world, are caused by tidal currents moving between the Seto Inland Sea and the Pacific Ocean through the narrow strait beneath the Onaruto Bridge. The closest major landmark to this property is the Naruto Otsuka Sports Park, a large complex featuring stadiums, including the Pocari Sweat Stadium (an 8-minute walk) and the Oronamin C Ballpark (a 4-minute walk), which host local sports events.
