[Assessed 82.6%] Detached house in Yamato, Kanagawa — 11 min from Yamato Sta.

A pre-owned detached house an 11-minute walk from Yamato Station on the Odakyu Enoshima Line and Sotetsu Main Line. Seya Station on the Sotetsu Main Line is also a 19-minute walk away. The house is in Fukamidai 3-chome, Yamato, within a Category I low-rise exclusive residential zone (building coverage 50%, floor area ratio 100%). According to the listings, Fukamidai Green Space is 100 m away, 7-Eleven Yamato Higashi 3-chome 360 m, and Starbucks Coffee YAMATO Bunka-no-Mori 550 m. The distances of the nearby places listed below are either as stated in the listings or straight-line distances from the center of Fukamidai 3-chome based on OpenStreetMap, as noted for each place.

The building is a two-storey lightweight steel-frame house built by Sekisui House in November 1989, with 258.03 sqm of registered floor area and a 7SLDK layout (a 35-tatami living-dining-kitchen). The land is 290.90 sqm (per the land register) and the asking price is 59.8 million yen. The owner currently lives there, and the handover date is negotiable. ⚠️ The site is a flag-shaped lot that reaches the 10.0 m public road on the north only through a 2.0 m wide access strip, and there is no parking; with only 2.0 m of frontage, getting a car in and out also appears difficult. Because a 258 sqm house connects to the road only through a 2 m strip, whether a building of the same size could be rebuilt under the Kanagawa Prefecture building standards ordinance on flag-shaped lots needs to be confirmed.

⚠️ The length and area of the access strip are not given in the listings; from the block dimensions on the map we estimate it at about 14 to 22 m (28 to 44 sqm). The assessed value is 49.38 million yen, applying the fiscal 2026 road price of 200,000 yen per sqm to an effective site of 246.9 sqm after deducting the upper estimate of 44 sqm, which gives the lowest result; that is 82.6% of the asking price. With the midpoint of 36 sqm the ratio would be 85.3%, and with the lower estimate of 28 sqm, 87.9%. The ratio falls below 80% only if the effective site is under 239.2 sqm (a strip of more than about 51.7 sqm, or longer than about 25.9 m). The building is 36 years old and past the 22-year statutory useful life for lightweight steel, so it is valued at zero. The road price is the band on the north road the site faces, and it has risen over three years from 170,000 to 185,000 to 200,000 yen per sqm, up 17.6%.

⚠️ The lot number is not disclosed, and from the distances to nearby facilities the property can only be narrowed down to the western half of the block facing the north road. In the exterior photo from another listing of the same property, the area around the house is flat with gravel and brick-paved paths, and no retaining walls or steps are visible. However, there are no photos of the access strip or the front road, so any step along the strip is unconfirmed. GSI 5 m elevation data shows the whole block as a flat plateau at 64.0 to 64.9 m. Both the land and the house are large, but the actual length of the access strip and the conditions for rebuilding need to be confirmed first.
