Full description
This is a 50-year-old two-story property in the Yura district of Oki Island. The 6DK layout is perfect for family use. Both floors mix Japanese and Western-style rooms, with an distinctive atrium-style Western room with stairs creating an unexpected sense of luxury. While showing wear proportional to its age, the overall condition is good with no immediate major repairs apparent. However, as a furnished turnkey property, all appliances and furnishings remain in place, requiring substantial effort to clear. Unfortunately, vehicle access is not possible, so clearing and moving in will require manual labor. / Though renovation would improve several areas, the property is currently habitable as-is. This means you can match renovation investment to your comfort budget. Alternatively, starting to live here and gradually doing DIY improvements is also recommended. Key repair areas are the second-floor balcony and first-floor floor joists. / Those considering island life in the Seto Inland Sea naturally worry about Nankai Trough tsunami risk. However, this property sits at high elevation with ocean views from the second-floor balcony but no tsunami concern. Additionally, it is just a 5-minute walk to the port, offering excellent convenience. Commercial facilities cluster near the port, making this the most convenient area on Oki Island. The location could even support large-scale renovation into a guesthouse/accommodation facility.

Utilities
Area and hazard data
A pre-1981 build predates Japan's current earthquake code, which can matter for insurance and renovation. We flag the era from the year built where we have it.
Floor plans
Municipal conditions and restrictions
Some towns attach conditions to an empty-home purchase, for example a residency requirement or farmland-law (nochi-ho) approval, which is a local sign-off needed before farmland can change hands or use. These come from the source listing.
