Full description

Recommendations: Although it's an old building, the second floor of the barn has been renovated into two Japanese-style rooms (8 tatami mats each) with white wood construction! / Contract notes: Household items are to be discussed. The living room requires renovation from the foundation up due to rain leaks causing moss and mold. The roof overhang on the north side of the barn has collapsed and needs to be demolished. / Other/Remarks: This is a region with very heavy snow in winter. Road access: snow removal provided; outside urban planning area / outside landslide warning zone
