This is a rare opportunity to acquire a prime development plot in the highly desirable Bunkyo Ward of Tokyo. The land parcel, with a total area of 97.27 square meters (approximately 29.42 tsubo), is offered for sale at 138 million yen. The property is situated in the Mejirodai 3-chome area, a quiet and prestigious residential neighborhood known for its academic institutions and historical ambiance.
Critical details from the agent's notes have been translated. The Special Notes/Remarks on Road Access state: "One-sided road facing south, width 2.3m, private road, frontage 2.3m, no designated position." Furthermore, Remark 1 clarifies: "Topography: Flat / Current condition: old house exists (to be delivered as vacant land)." This confirms the land is level and will be cleared of the existing structure upon transfer, presenting a blank canvas for your new construction.
The property is designated within a City Planning Area under the First Category Medium-to-High-Rise Exclusive Residential District, with a building coverage ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 160%. No notification under the National Land Use Planning Act is required. The land rights are full ownership (freehold), and the delivery date is negotiable.
The location offers excellent accessibility, being a 9-minute walk from Gokokuji Station on the Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line and a 12-minute walk from Zoshigaya Station on the Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line. This places residents within easy reach of central Tokyo while enjoying the serene atmosphere of Bunkyo. The area is steeped in history and culture, being home to several significant landmarks. A short distance away is the iconic Gokokuji Temple, a historic Buddhist temple founded in the 17th century by the mother of the fifth Tokugawa shogun, which adds a profound sense of tradition to the neighborhood.
