Spacious Family Home in Fujisawa with Unique Land Characteristics

This substantial property in Fujisawa, Kanagawa Prefecture, offers a generous 5LDK layout within a 150.60㎡ wooden house built in May 2000. The home features two above-ground stories plus a basement, with the total building area including a 24.60㎡ basement section. The land itself is a significant 158.60㎡ corner plot, providing ample outdoor space.

Critical details from the agent notes specify the road access situation: it is a corner lot facing southwest with a 5m wide public road and a 20.8m frontage, and southeast with a 6.3m wide road. A crucial note states that rebuilding is not permitted. While parking for one vehicle is available (subject to vehicle type), the corner lot status does not qualify for corner lot relaxation allowances. The land is within a City Planning Act Urbanization Control Area, meaning land development for housing and building construction is generally prohibited. However, construction may be possible if permission is obtained under Article 43, Paragraph 1 of the City Planning Act. Any permissible structure would be a two-story wooden building of the type allowed in a Category I Exclusive Low-Rise Residential Zone.

The residence is situated in the Nishimatano area, a quiet residential district. Fujisawa is a vibrant city known for its blend of urban convenience and coastal proximity. An interesting local fact is that the city is home to the historic Yugyo-ji Temple, the head temple of the Ji sect of Buddhism, founded in the 13th century. The closest major landmark is the iconic Enoshima Island, a small offshore island connected to the mainland by a bridge, famous for its shrine, sea caves, and panoramic views of Mount Fuji.
