Land for Sale in Yaeze, Okinawa: A Prime Development Opportunity
This 624 square meter plot of land, located in the Ga district of Yaeze Town, presents a significant development opportunity. The property is currently designated as farmland, but with the acquisition of development permission, it has the potential to be used for a variety of facilities. According to the agent's notes, this could include social welfare facilities, medical institutions, clothing stores, grocery stores, pharmacies, convenience stores, restaurants, and barbershops or beauty salons. This flexibility makes it an attractive prospect for investors or developers looking to contribute to the local community's infrastructure.
The land is situated in a city planning area designated as an "Urbanization Control Area," which typically requires permits for development, ensuring controlled growth. It has a favorable building coverage ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 200%. The plot enjoys frontage on a 12-meter wide road to the southeast, with no private road burden. The location offers excellent access, being just a 5-minute drive from the Haebaru Minami Interchange, providing convenient connectivity to wider Okinawa.
The surrounding area of Yaeze Town in southern Okinawa is known for its rich history and natural beauty. An interesting local fact is that the town is home to the famous "Gyokusendo" cave, one of Japan's most spectacular limestone caverns. The property is also within a reasonable distance of major tourist attractions like Shuri Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site and the former palace of the Ryukyu Kingdom, offering a deep cultural connection to Okinawa's unique heritage.
