About this home
Two-storey wood-frame, 1978, 65 sqm, five rooms; one ceiling collapsed and temporarily reinforced.
The terrace space and storage could work toward something livable, but structural repairs are non-negotiable first.
Draft summary from the listing, not yet reviewed by a founder.
From the listing
Customize to your preference! Currently one room has a ceiling collapse (temporary repairs made to prevent further deterioration), and renovation is essential. However, with a terrace-like space and some effort, it could transform into a quite stylish home. Recommended for those wanting to tackle DIY restoration or renovate to their liking. / Two-story 5DK with a small storage shed: Three rooms on the first floor, two on the second, a 5DK dwelling offering family-sized space, though single occupants can enjoy it spaciously too. While challenging for farming, there is a small prefab-like storage shed. With plenty of storage space, ideal layout with proper utilization. / Surroundings: Located in the dense Oura settlement, unfortunately no parking on the property, but being central Oura, the port and supermarket are within walking distance even without a car. There is a covered bicycle storage area, so those relying on bicycles won't find it inconvenient. / 1F: Japanese room before kitchen with ceiling and floor damage; hot water heater (kerosene) requires repair.

The price in context
The nearest official land-price benchmark is about 13,700 yen per sqm, down about 20% over five years (17,200 to 13,700), which the survey classes as declining.

Area and hazard data
2 checks clear, 4 to know about. Each check is against a government map for this exact point. Where a map is missing or we can't use it, we say so; that never means there's no risk.
- Earthquake code Caution
- Built before the 1981 earthquake code. Expect a structural survey, harder mortgages, and a retrofit budget; towns often grant part of that cost.
- Strong-earthquake chance Warning
- About 54% chance of a strong quake (shindo 6-lower or above) in 30 years, high for Japan, where most places sit between 3% and 26%
- Landslide risk Checked, clear
- Checked: no designated landslide zone at this location. Zone edges are approximate, and this is not a legal property disclosure document.
- Flood risk Checked, clear
- Checked: outside a mapped flood area. The maps cover designated rivers only, so this is not a promise of no flooding.
- Tsunami risk Caution
- In a tsunami inundation zone, expected depth at least 0.3 m
- Liquefaction Caution
- High liquefaction susceptibility. A ground survey should be part of any purchase.

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.
