Showa Construction's Life Town Shimoezu: A Land Development Opportunity in Kumamoto
This listing presents Showa Construction's Life Town Shimoezu, a residential land development project with building conditions attached, located in Kumamoto City's Higashi Ward. The development consists of 8 plots in total, all of which are currently for sale. The land areas range from approximately 172.64 square meters to 211.87 square meters, offering a variety of sizes for prospective homeowners. The pricing for these plots spans from 13,942,000 yen to 17,945,000 yen. A key feature of this sale is that it is a direct transaction from the seller (Showa Construction Co., Ltd.), meaning there are no intermediary fees for the buyer.
According to the agent's notes, a critical piece of information regarding the equipment or facilities is provided: "Equipment/Facilities: None, as this is land that does not require a development permit application." This translates to a significant administrative advantage, as the land is ready for construction without the need for a separate development permit process, streamlining the path to building your home.
The property is situated in a First Category Low-Rise Exclusive Residential Zone, ensuring a quiet and consistent residential environment. The area boasts a plot ratio of 80% and a building coverage ratio of 40%. Public utilities including Kyushu Electric Power, public water supply, and public sewerage are available. The land is already developed and ready for handover. The property is sold with a building condition, which requires the buyer to enter into a building contract with a designated contractor within a specified period after purchasing the land.
The area, Kumamoto's Higashi Ward, is part of the vibrant city known as the "City of Water" due to its abundant groundwater and the Shirakawa River. An interesting fact about Kumamoto is that its castle, Kumamoto Castle, is one of Japan's premier castles and famously withstood a 50-day siege during the Satsuma Rebellion. The closest major landmark from this development is the magnificent Kumamoto Castle, a historic and cultural symbol of the prefecture located a convenient distance away, offering residents a direct connection to the region's rich samurai history.
