Japanese address

Full description

Right next to the Soshiro Aqueduct; ideal for those who enjoy farming and gardening. / A 100-year-old wooden two-story building nestled alongside the gentle flow of the Soshiro Aqueduct. This property features fields and garden, offering the convenience of proximity to both town and river while enjoying the peaceful landscape along the waterway. Current state: 1 parking space, propane gas, oil-heated bath, squat pit toilet. The building retains traditional wooden-house character that deepens with restoration work. / The story of this house is supported by the history of the Soshiro Aqueduct, registered as a UNESCO Irrigation Facility. During the Edo period, local ancestors drew water from the Nagara River, transforming the region into a rich agricultural area, a heritage that continues to inform daily life. The location is ideal for hands-on engagement with fields and gardens, incorporating seasonal abundance and learning. / Condition: The building shows significant deterioration. Preparation for succession is essential. Water system upgrades (septic tank installation, flush toilet conversion), insulation, earthquake reinforcement, electrical and plumbing updates, and disposal of abandoned items are the buyer's responsibility. Farming the fields requires agricultural land acquisition procedures. Even if the building and land purchase price is low, plan for substantial initial renovation costs and stage improvements accordingly. Please inquire if you understand the effort required for renovation and removal and enjoy hands-on work. / Special notes: Disposal costs for abandoned items will also be incurred.
