Prime Development Land in Shinjuku, Tokyo
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial plot of land for sale in the highly sought-after Shinjuku ward of central Tokyo. The property, located in Nakai 2-chome, offers a total land area of 180.23 square meters (approximately 54.51 tsubo), providing ample space for a custom residential development. The site is conveniently situated within an 8-minute walk from the Seibu Shinjuku Line's Nakai Station and a 9-minute walk from the Toei Oedo Line's Nakai Station, offering excellent access to central Tokyo.
Critical agent notes provide essential details for prospective developers. The road access situation is detailed as follows: it fronts a single road to the southeast with a width of 3.2 meters. A portion of the frontage is a private road with a contact width of 2.4 meters, and there is no designated position. Furthermore, a special remark clarifies that the land area requires a 1.88 square meter setback portion. Contrary to the initial listing which noted sloping land, the remark specifies the landform is actually flat, a significant advantage for construction.
The land is zoned as Category I Exclusive Low-Rise Residential District within the urbanization promotion area, with a building-to-land ratio of 50% and a floor area ratio of 100%. There is an old house currently on the premises, but there are no specific building conditions attached to the sale, making it a blank canvas for a new project. The transaction method is exclusive agency.
The Nakai area offers a quiet residential atmosphere while being just minutes from major train lines. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Oedo Line, which serves Nakai Station, is one of the deepest subway lines in the world, with some sections running over 40 meters below ground. The closest major landmark is the iconic Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden, a sprawling park blending traditional Japanese, English landscape, and French formal garden styles, located just a short train ride away.
