Spacious Corner Lot Home in Fukuoka's Rōji District
This property presents a solid opportunity for those seeking a home with generous space and a prime corner location in Fukuoka's Rōji district. Built in 1975 by Sekisui House, the structure is a two-story light-gauge steel frame building with a total floor area of 109.80 sqm, offering a 4LDK layout. The land spans 143.14 sqm and is situated on a quiet residential street.
The property's equipment and facilities include propane gas, city water supply, sewerage, side ditches, underfloor heating, electricity, two toilets, a shampoo dresser, a system kitchen, shutters, and a roof balcony. The special notes detail its advantageous corner lot position. It faces two public roads: a 3.6-meter-wide road to the northwest with a 9.2-meter frontage, and a 4-meter-wide road to the southwest with a 12-meter frontage, both with designated location permits. The current condition includes an unregistered wooden shed and landscaping. The property is sold as-is, suggesting renovation will be necessary. Sunlight is good and the urban area is conveniently close. A minor encroachment of approximately 1.8 sqm onto the neighboring land exists, but a memorandum has been signed and relations are good. For any future rebuilding, a setback will be required where the current 4-meter road width is not met. Legal restrictions include being in a Category II 20-meter height control district, a near-commercial zone, with a building-to-land ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 200%.
The Rōji area offers excellent connectivity. To the east flows the Naka River, and to the south it borders Nakagawa City. The Rōji Yotsukado intersection, where north-south Miyake-dori (National Route 385) meets east-west Prefectural Route 49, is a key traffic point. Heading north on Miyake-dori, Ōhashi Station on the Nishitetsu Ōmuta Line is about a 10-minute bus ride away. From the Rōji 1-chome bus stop, buses provide direct access not only to Ōhashi Station and Nakagawa, but also to Hakata Station and Tenjin without transfers. A notable landmark in the broader area is the Fukuoka Tower, a seaside symbol of the city located approximately 7 kilometers to the west, offering panoramic views of Hakata Bay.
