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: Distinctive old-fashioned traditional Japanese architecture characterized by thick pillars and beams, engawa (veranda), earthen floor, and stone walls. Some repairs are needed due to age, but it is an attractive prospect for renovation / Large site with ample space for vegetable garden and landscaping / Multiple regular vehicles can be parked / Pleasant environment with good sunlight facing the calm waters of Tsurushi-da Bay / The bath will need to be replaced / Opening of the Second Oto Bridge in March 2013 eliminated congestion and newly improved the road. This has dramatically improved access to the old Kure city center
Specifications
Where a detail is not shown, the source listing did not state it. We leave it out rather than guess.
Area and hazard data
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.
