[Assessed 134.6%] Land in Inage Ward, Chiba City, Chiba — 9 min from Inage Sta.

A plot of land within a 9-minute walk of Inage Station on the JR Sobu Line and a 4-minute walk of Keisei-Inage Station on the Keisei Chiba Line. It is 430.87 sq m of vacant land with no tie-in building contract.

⚠️ The town name given in the listing does not exist. Both Rakumachi and Kenbiya show the address as "Inahama-cho, Inage Ward, Chiba City", but no such town exists in Inage Ward. It does not appear in the Geospatial Information Authority address search, nor in the National Tax Agency's road-price map index. Reverse-geocoding the map pin on Rakumachi returns Nagasu 1-chome in Chuo Ward, about 4.6 km from Inage Station. Since both sites show the same wording, the agent's data entry appears to have flowed straight through to both. We narrowed the location using the walking times in the listing: the area satisfying both about 320 m from Keisei-Inage and about 720 m from JR Inage falls within Inage 1-3 chome and Inaoka-cho, and we evaluated the land on that basis. The address field records the estimated area rather than the listed "Inahama-cho", since carrying the listing's wording over would put a non-existent address on the page. That estimate covers an area, not a lot number, so confirming the actual location still requires contacting the agent.

⚠️ The listing contains no site photographs at all. Every image slot on Rakumachi and Kenbiya reads "no image available", and no matching listing was found on SUUMO or at home. As a result, we could not confirm whether there is a retaining wall, a step up from the road, or a flag-shaped lot. The road-frontage field is also blank, so neither the width of the front road nor whether it is public or private is known. Six properties with no frontage information have previously been declined for publication on this site, all on the grounds of being non-rebuildable.

The zoning is Category I Low-Rise Exclusive Residential, with a 60 percent building coverage ratio and a 150 percent floor area ratio. That zoning is unsuited to apartment blocks, so the plot suits a detached house or a land-value purchase premised on subdivision. The land category is residential, the title is freehold, and it sits within an urbanisation promotion area.

We adopted an inheritance-tax road price of 125,000 yen per sq m for FY2026, the lowest band within the estimated area. That gives a land assessment of about 53.86 million yen, or 134.6 percent of the 40 million yen asking price. The road price has risen 13.6 percent over three years, from 110,000 yen in FY2024 to 115,000 in FY2025 and 125,000 in FY2026. Bands of 140,000 to 170,000 yen also exist within the same area; adopting those would push the ratio higher, but we took the lower figure because the location is not fixed.

⚠️ The 40 million yen asking price is 25.7 percent below the 53.86 million yen land value implied by the road price, and the listing gives no reason for the gap. Slope or embankment reducing the usable area, a surveyed area smaller than the registered one, a flag-shaped lot with a long access strip, or a frontage problem could each be priced in. With neither photographs nor frontage details, the gap cannot be explained without seeing the site.

The assessment ratio is high on its own terms, but three issues overlap here: the location is not identified, there are no photographs, and the frontage is unknown. Anyone considering this plot should first ask the agent for the correct address (lot number) and the frontage conditions. The listing was registered on 8 September 2026, with the next update due on 15 September 2026.
