Renovation Opportunity in Sakura City's Chiyoda District
This property, listed as No. 145 in the Chiyoda district, is a vacant house (akiya) presented as a prime candidate for rebuilding. The land area is approximately 82 square meters, which is compact, but the plot is square-shaped and has minimal elevation difference with neighboring lots, simplifying construction. The location is within an adjustment area, yet it offers convenient access, being about a 14-minute walk from Keisei Usui Station.
Critical details from the agent's notes must be considered. The front road is a road under Article 42, Paragraph 1, Item 5 of the Building Standards Act (a position-designated road). Approximately 19 square meters of this position-designated road is included within the site area. Any remaining items or debris on the property must be disposed of by the purchaser. Furthermore, the property does not qualify for the demolition and new construction subsidy system due to its small land area.
The house itself is a 61-year-old wooden structure built in January 1965, with a total floor area of 43.88 square meters. The layout is a 3K (three rooms plus kitchen). The land totals 100.82 square meters. Key property features include parking for two or more cars, a south-facing orientation, a quiet residential neighborhood, city gas, a system kitchen, two toilets, a reheating function for the bath, suitability for two-generation living, a corner lot, and a monitor-equipped intercom.
The property is situated in Oyu, Sakura City, Chiba Prefecture. Sakura City is rich in history and culture, being home to the impressive Sakura Castle, a reconstructed samurai stronghold that now serves as a museum and park. The area offers a blend of suburban living with deep historical roots.
