[Assessed 121.9%] Land in Higashiyamato, Tokyo — 17 min from Musashi-Yamato Sta.

This plot of land is in Shimizu 6-chome, Higashiyamato, Tokyo, a 17-minute walk from Musashi-Yamato Station on the Seibu Tamako Line. Buses also run from Higashiyamatoshi Station on the Seibu Haijima Line (8 minutes, then a 5-minute walk from the Tokyo Kaido Danchi stop) and from Kumegawa Station on the Seibu Shinjuku Line (10 minutes, then a 5-minute walk from the Higashiyamato Shimizu Post Office stop). The area is a residential district in a Category 1 Low-Rise Exclusive Residential Zone. According to the listing, Shimizu Kodomo Hiroba park is 180 m away, a Lawson convenience store 280 m, a post office 350 m, Dairoku Elementary School 860 m and Daisan Junior High School 960 m. A yakiniku restaurant, a burger restaurant and an udon restaurant lie about 120–200 m from the centre of Shimizu 6-chome (straight-line distances from OpenStreetMap).

The 75 m² (about 22.68 tsubo, registered) vacant site is freehold, and the listing mentions no building condition. It is in a Category 1 Low-Rise Exclusive Residential Zone with building coverage of 40% and a floor area ratio of 80%, and is subject to a height control district, the Landscape Act and the Civil Aeronautics Act. Public water, public sewer and city gas are available. ⚠️ The registered land category is forest (currently grassland), so a registration changing the category to residential land is expected to be needed before building. The listing describes roads on three sides (north 4 m wide with 8.5 m of frontage, west 4 m with 5.2 m, east 5.5 m with 1.5 m), but the plot plan only shows the roughly 4.0 m public roads on the north and west sides; frontage on the 5.5 m road to the east is not drawn. There is no private road burden.

In the listing photos the lot is a corner site at about the same level as the roads to the north and west, with a mesh fence on one or two courses of block (about 0.2–0.4 m high) along the road. The neighbouring lots to the south and east are flat and at the same level, and no retaining wall, steps or slope are visible. Although the land category is forest, the site is flat, so no site-preparation cost has been deducted. On the assessed-value side, the land alone, valued at the FY2026 road price of 130,000 yen/m² (up about 4.0% over three years), exceeds the price, giving an assessed ratio of about 121.9%. Because the lot number is not disclosed, we used the most common value for residential roads in Shimizu 6-chome; even at the lowest band in the district (120,000 yen/m²), the ratio is about 112.5%.

The site is small at 75 m², and with the listed coverage and floor area ratio the guide is about 30 m² of building footprint and 60 m² of total floor area. Higashiyamato sets a minimum site area in some districts, but the listing says nothing about this, so whether a minimum applies to this site (and, if so, whether it can still be built on as an existing site) needs to be checked with the city. We recommend confirming this with the agent, together with the procedure and cost of changing the land category and the actual frontage on the eastern road.
