[Assessed 116.2%] Detached house, 5 min from Tsurumi-Ono Station, Tsurumi Ward, Yokohama, Kanagawa

We opened the National Tax Agency's fiscal 2026 roadside value map 63071 and read the southern half of Shimonoya-cho 4-chome. The residential streets running south from the east-west arterial (215D-225C) are all 180D, the most common value in the district. Lot annotations 33-5 and 37-37 and Shimonoya-cho Second Park sit adjacent to this 180D band, which confirmed on the map that the band belongs to Shimonoya-cho 4-chome rather than neighbouring Onocho. The service road along the Sangyo Doro is 190D. The northern half of the district appears on a different sheet (63064), where residential streets run 195D-235D, one step higher. We took the conservative southern figure of 180,000 yen/sqm. The three-year series was matched by following the same street on the same sheet 63071: 170,000 yen in fiscal 2024, 175,000 in 2025 and 180,000 in 2026 — three consecutive rises. The leasehold ratio symbol is D (60%) throughout, and there is no multiplier-area notation. The roadside value needed to reach an 80% assessed ratio is 123,911 yen/sqm, below every band in Shimonoya-cho 4-chome (180D-235D), so a modest error in locating the plot would not change the conclusion.

The only photo in the listing is a floor plan; there are no exterior or street-frontage shots at all. This is not a retrieval failure — none exist. The image URL in the SUUMO HTML is a single floor plan with the remaining slots filled by placeholders, the same property on HOME'S is marked "1 image", and the photo gallery on the handling agent's own site (property number 106971903), which supplies the portals, also holds only the floor plan. Retaining wall heights, steps up from the road, stepped access and whether the house shares party walls are therefore all unverified. In place of photos we sampled 25 points across roughly 270 sqm around the site using the Geospatial Information Authority elevation API: 1.2 to 1.9 m above sea level, with a spread of 0.7 m across the whole area. This is flat lowland along the Tsurumi River, leaving almost no room for a retaining wall or road step of 1 m or more. The 5 m mesh cannot resolve a 1 m step at the level of a single plot, however, and elevation says nothing about party walls.

We treated the registered 82.64 sqm as the effective residential land area in full. SUUMO records the private road burden as "none", and the structured fields on the handling agent's own site show no private road area, no setback, no flagpole strip, no sloped portion and no high-voltage line easement, so no deduction arises. The land category is residential.

Wooden construction, built June 1968, 58 years old. That is 36 years past the 22-year statutory useful life for wooden structures, so the remaining life is zero and the building's assessed value is counted as zero. The 116.2% assessed ratio therefore comes from the land alone. The building is a 7K layout with 77.7 sqm of floor area (measured): entrance, dining kitchen, bathroom, Japanese-style toilet and three Japanese rooms on the ground floor; a separate entrance, kitchen, Japanese-style toilet, two Western rooms and a drying area upstairs.

The land is held in freehold, in an urbanisation promotion area zoned Category I Residential. However, building coverage and floor area ratios are shown as "-" on both SUUMO and the agent's site. The frontage field is also "-", so neither the direction nor the width of the road is known. "Other restrictions" and "other legal restrictions" are likewise "-", and nothing anywhere in the listing mentions non-rebuildable status, cliff ordinances, retaining walls or proviso roads.

The house is vacant with immediate handover, and the transaction type is brokerage. Utilities are mains water and city gas; there is no parking. Information was provided on 28 August 2026, with the next update due 5 September 2026. The same property appears on HOME'S and on the handling agent's own site, with matching details.
