Ocean View Land Parcel in Uruma City, Okinawa
This expansive land parcel, located in the Ishikawa area of Uruma City on Okinawa's central west coast, offers a rare opportunity to own a sizable piece of paradise. The property boasts a generous 1,791 square meters (approximately 541 tsubo) of land with a desirable two-sided road frontage, providing excellent access. Its prime corner location faces east, offering open, panoramic views over Kin Bay, creating a sense of freedom and potential.
Critical agent notes provide essential details for prospective buyers. The property's facilities are connected to Okinawa Electric Power Company. A crucial special note states: "This land is bought and sold based on registered area (公簿面積). Even if the actual measured area increases or decreases, there will be no settlement (精算)." This means the transaction price is fixed to the official registered size, regardless of any variance found in a later survey. Furthermore, the property is subject to the Agricultural Land Law, meaning permission application procedures are required.
The land is designated as farmland (畑) and is located outside of city planning areas, with no specific use district assigned, though it falls under a Specific Use Restriction Area (集落環境保全地区). Building regulations include a floor area ratio of 200%, a building coverage ratio of 60%, and height restrictions of 12 meters or approximately four stories. Utilities include individual LP gas and a private septic tank system, with public water supply available.
The surrounding Uruma City area is rich in natural beauty and history, forming part of the main island's central region. An interesting fact is that Uruma City was created in 2005 from the merger of four towns, and its name is derived from "Uru" (coral) and "Ma" (horse), though it's also a play on the phrase "Okinawa, the island of Uruma." The closest major tourist attraction is the iconic Katsuren Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site with ruins offering stunning views of the ocean and a deep connection to the Ryukyu Kingdom's history.
