Location

This marks an approximate area, not the exact building. The circle is a rough radius from the listing's published address, so you can see the neighbourhood without us guessing at a precise spot.

Full description

Remarks: The property is not fronting the road, so access to the house is via a private road. An additional adjacent land parcel (paddy field) will need to be purchased separately. To make the property habitable, roof and interior renovation work is required, along with installation of a well pump and septic tank, requiring separate budget. The property is in a landslide warning zone.

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.
