From the listing
Due to changes in our lifestyle, we have decided to let go of this house. Raising children in this place, the connections with the community, and the sense of security we felt in daily life were very precious times. It is a traditional house fully renovated in Heisei 26 (2014) with warmth of wood and calm Japanese aesthetics. The space is open, making time spent in the house feel relaxed. The "just-right rural" environment of Taketa, where daily necessities are readily available, also contributes to livability. Due to the castle-town house structure, adjacent to neighboring homes, some parts do not receive much light. However, during our actual living here, neighbor noise was hardly noticeable, and the house structure does not allow interior sound to leak outside, so neighbors said they could not hear the children's voices at all. Upon stepping inside the house, there was a deep sense of security that seemed to envelop us. Our role in this house has reached a milestone. We hope the next residents will enjoy living here. We hope for the price as listed below. While adjustment is possible depending on conditions, major changes are difficult. We hope for those who can hand over the property as early as possible. We look forward to a good connection with this home. / Condition: Vacant (can be moved into soon with just wallpaper replacement)

Where a detail is not shown, the source listing did not state it. We leave it out rather than guess.
The price in context
The nearest official land-price benchmark is about 16,800 yen per sqm, down about 6% over five years (17,800 to 16,800), which the survey classes as declining.
The asking price works out at about 63,189 yen per sqm of land, 276% above the nearest residential benchmark of about 16,800 yen per sqm.

Area and hazard data
6 checks clear. Each check is against a government map for this exact point. Where a map is missing or we can't use it, we say so; that never means there's no risk.
- Earthquake code Checked, clear
- Built to the current (post-2000) earthquake code
- Strong-earthquake chance Checked, clear
- About 1% chance of a strong quake (shindo 6-lower or above) in 30 years, low for Japan, where most places sit between 3% and 26%
- Landslide risk Checked, clear
- Checked: no designated landslide zone at this location. Zone edges are approximate, and this is not a legal property disclosure document.
- Flood risk Checked, clear
- Checked: outside a mapped flood area. The maps cover designated rivers only, so this is not a promise of no flooding.
- Tsunami risk Checked, clear
- Checked: no designated tsunami inundation zone at this location
- Liquefaction Checked, clear
- Low liquefaction susceptibility for the ground here
