[Assessed 139%] Detached house in Fuchu, Tokyo — 17 min from Fuchu Sta.

⚠️ Important notes on road frontage and price. The listing's frontage field says only "east 4.0 m, south 3.0 m, north 3.0 m", with no indication of whether these are public or private roads, no land category and no private-road share, and the photos show an unpaved gravel lane in front. Neither the listing nor the photos show whether this lane is a road under the Building Standards Act or an on-site passage, so rebuildability has not been confirmed; on the road price map, the internal lanes of this small block group carry no road price. In addition, the asking price of 13,800,000 yen is only 72% of the road-price total of 19,180,000 yen, and the seller is a real-estate company marketing the property to investors on its yield, so the listing information alone cannot explain why the price is this low. We searched SUUMO and Yahoo! Real Estate for another listing of the same property but found none, so the frontage could not be corroborated. Confirmation with the agent is required.

This is a used detached house in Tenjincho 1-chome, Fuchu City, Tokyo, 17 minutes on foot from Fuchu Station on the Keio Line, in a residential area of small houses of similar age north of Fuchu-no-Mori Park. The block number is not disclosed, but the listing's position data places it in the small block group between blocks 6 and 7 of Tenjincho 1-chome. In straight-line distance from the property, FamilyMart is about 130 m away and 7-Eleven Fuchu Tenjincho about 330 m.

The building is a two-storey wooden house built in April 1972 with 70.93 sqm of floor area in a 4DK layout, currently vacant, with no parking. The seller quotes a planned annual rent of 1,440,000 yen (projected yield 10.43%), but there is no lease behind this figure. The land is 61.88 sqm, freehold, in an urbanisation promotion area zoned category-1 low-rise residential (40% building coverage, 80% floor-area ratio), with no building conditions. The price is 13,800,000 yen; the athome listing went public on 15 September 2026.

The FY2026 inheritance-tax road price is 310,000 yen/sqm (map 59029), the most common band among the local streets of Tenjincho 1-chome. Applied to 61.88 sqm, the assessed land value is 19,182,800 yen; the 54-year-old wooden building exceeds its 22-year statutory life, so its assessed value is zero. Against the asking price the assessed ratio is 139.0%. The bands around the perimeter of the block group range from 275,000 to 310,000 yen; even the lowest, 275,000 yen, gives 123.3%. The road price has risen about 12.7% over three years, from 275,000 yen (FY2024) to 295,000 (FY2025) and 310,000 (FY2026).

We reviewed three exterior photos and one interior photo of the eight in the listing. The gravel lane in front is flat and level with the lot; apart from a single step of about 15 cm up to the entrance porch there is no level difference, stepped access or retaining wall. The front block wall is four courses (about 0.8 m) high, but the ground is at the same level on both sides, so it does not retain earth. Similar houses stand in a row, but the gap to the neighbour and the independent outer wall confirm it is not terraced. It is not a flag lot.
