Prime Development Land in Kutchan, Hokkaido
This 965.88 square meter (approximately 292.18 tsubo) plot of vacant land presents a significant development opportunity in the sought-after town of Kutchan, Hokkaido. Strategically located within the town's urban planning area and designated for Quasi-Industrial use, the land offers flexibility for various projects with a building coverage ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 200%. The property is fully serviced with essential utilities, specifically connected to both water supply and sewer systems.
The land benefits from excellent access, being only about a 3-minute drive (approximately 1.58 km) from JR Hakodate Main Line's "Kutchan" Station. It has frontage on two roads: a 12.8-meter frontage on a municipal road (Kita 7-jo Higashi-dori) and a 19.3-meter frontage on a private road. This dual access enhances its utility and potential value.
The area surrounding Kutchan is renowned as the gateway to the Niseko United ski resort, one of Japan's premier winter sports destinations, attracting international visitors year-round. An interesting local fact is that the region receives some of the heaviest and highest-quality powder snow in the world, which has fueled its transformation into a global resort community. The closest major landmark is the majestic Mount Yotei, an almost perfectly symmetrical volcano often referred to as "Ezo Fuji" for its resemblance to Mount Fuji, which dominates the skyline and offers spectacular hiking in the warmer months.
