About this home

Four-room traditional wood farmhouse on Ogo Island's Yura district, recently re-roofed and re-windowed but needing interior work; 93 sqm across two floors, a 46-minute walk to Takano Station. Sea air and a vegetable garden plot, though you're 277 km from the coast proper.

Draft summary from the listing, not yet reviewed by a founder.

From the listing

Ideal for commuting and schooling; exceptional livability in this old farmhouse. The owner has recently renovated the exterior walls, gate, windows, and roof; it is solidly constructed, though partial repairs are needed. Once renovated, it will offer charming traditional farmhouse character. There is a modest-sized garden plot for home vegetable growing, and with the sea nearby it appeals to fishing enthusiasts. The house is just a stone's throw from the wide road along the coast! A light truck can be driven right up to the house, which is very helpful for moving. This vintage-feeling structure delights lovers of old farmhouses. It features a traditional alcove, wooden sliding doors, large beams, and a long veranda, must-haves for farmhouse fans. Separate storage spaces in an outbuilding and attic will be useful over time. Water and sanitation fixtures are old and will require renovation consideration. Some antique furniture inside may be inherited as-is (negotiable). The 4DK layout is a comfortable size for an island farmhouse. A supermarket is nearby for easy shopping on foot. While there is no on-site parking, ample parking is available nearby. A short 5-minute bike ride along the coast reaches the island's elementary and middle schools, making it extremely convenient for commuting or schooling to off-island locations. Facilities: Kitchen (gas) / Toilet (drop-type) / Bath (separate building) / Bath hot water (gas) / TV antenna (private) / Internet (CATV) / Storage shed (yes)
