[Assessed 134.7%] Land in Kashiwa, Chiba — 19 min from Goko Sta.

This is a lot for sale in Shiinokidai 4-chome, Kashiwa, Chiba, a 19-minute walk from Goko Station on the Keisei Matsudo Line (23 minutes from Motoyama Station). The price is 5.3 million yen for 99.17 ㎡ of freehold land (registered area), which the cadastral map shows as a regular lot about 10 m square. It is in a Category 1 Low-rise Exclusive Residential Zone (building coverage 50%, floor area ratio 100%) within an Article 22 area of the Building Standards Act, with no building condition attached. An old two-story wooden house with an underground garage still stands on the lot, and the handover date is negotiable. Utilities are public water, public sewer and individual LPG. Kashiwa Municipal Takayanagi-Nishi Elementary School and Kitaoka Kindergarten are each a 10-minute walk according to the listing source. The listing is through a brokerage.

The lot fronts a 4.0 m wide private road (a designated road) on the northwest side. The listing states there is no private-road burden, and because the road is already 4.0 m wide there is no setback, so the listed area is used as is. However, the listing does not say whether the lot holds a share of this private road, or whether consent for passage and excavation (for example, for water, sewer and gas connections) can be obtained, so this needs to be confirmed with the agent. The lot sits about 0.8 m above the road on a concrete-block retaining wall (estimated from the number of block courses in the photo), and the entrance is reached by three steps. On the northeast side the ground rises gently toward the back, so the retaining wall there is lower than at the front, and the neighboring lot to the southwest is raised to about the same height. There is no photo of the southeast (rear) boundary, so the level difference with the neighbor on that side has not been confirmed.

The road price is the Reiwa 8 (2026) value of 72,000 yen/㎡, the most common value on the local roads of Shiinokidai 4-chome, giving an assessment ratio of about 134.7%. The private road that this lot actually fronts, however, lies in a 57,000 yen/㎡ band; using that value, the ratio is about 106.7%. ⚠️ The price of 5.3 million yen is below the total road-price value of the land (about 7.14 million yen at the representative 72,000 yen/㎡, and about 5.65 million yen even at the 57,000 yen/㎡ of the fronting private road). Possible reasons include the cost of demolishing the old house, backfilling the underground garage, the unconfirmed private-road share and consents, the front retaining wall and the 19-minute walk to the station, but the listing gives no reason. The representative section has risen from 67,000 yen/㎡ in 2024 and 69,000 yen/㎡ in 2025.

⚠️ The listing's equipment section mentions an underground garage for the old house, but no opening could be seen in the photos, so its location and size are unknown. If the house is demolished to clear the lot, backfilling the underground part may add cost. In addition, the flyer's information release date is April 6, 2026, so the listing has been running for about half a year. Price and conditions may have changed, so the latest terms need to be confirmed with the agent. Distances to nearby places are straight-line distances from the position of the lot number (No. 31), and the restaurants are across the city boundary in Goko 8-chome, Matsudo.
