1950s wood house in Ehime

Full description

Those who long for traditional farmhouse living often struggle with plumbing and interior issues, DIY can only go so far, but you want a nice home anyway! This property is perfect for such people. Built 70 years ago, this is a 2 LDK single-story home, but because the previous owner was a commercial design company, the property has been beautifully renovated while preserving the old-house atmosphere. Plumbing, flooring, walls, and layout have all been tastefully updated. However, the ceiling has some issues; ceiling work is essential for living here. Beyond the interior, the location is excellent, with the sea right in front, the view is spectacular. With a well-organized layout, this property is recommended not only as a residence but also as a vacation home. / Upon opening the entrance, you're greeted by a spacious earthen-floor entryway. The high ceiling (from ceiling removal during renovation) creates an open, airy feel. (However, dust does fall from above, so ceiling work is necessary.) Without the oppressive walls typical of old farmhouses, the space feels spacious; you might imagine using the post areas for storage or shelves. The property maintains good traditional features while upgrading utilities and plumbing to modern standards, an appreciable aspect. There is no bathtub, but a well-designed shower room is available. / Five minutes by car from Yura Port. While there is no on-site parking, a parking area is available nearby. The property includes space for a vegetable garden. With the beach right in front, you can enjoy SUP and fishing, a wonderful feature. The area is quiet, perfect for those wanting peaceful living. Recommended for those seeking island life or wanting a second home on the island. / Recommended points: Plumbing has been renovated. Beach nearby for SUP and fishing. Quiet neighborhood. Large garden on the property. Island kitchen and fire-space area with attention to detail. Fine touches throughout. / Areas needing repair: Falling dust from ceiling; ceiling work is essential.
