Full description

Comment: This 1993-built property meets the new seismic standards and is a rare steel-frame house in the Akiya Bank. Perfect for those who want to live long-term with peace of mind. With 2-car inner garage, it's invaluable for car enthusiasts and those with lots of outdoor gear. However, being located along National Route 41 might be a concern for small children and elderly residents; not ideal for those seeking a rural, laid-back lifestyle. The interior is clean and well-insulated, so you can live comfortably. In summary, this property is recommended for those who want to own a residence in Gero, rather than those seeking a rustic lifestyle.
