Full description

Recommendation points: Central location in town; excellent lifestyle convenience. / Remarks: Front road has snow-melt system. Surrounded by residential area in a central town location. Close to JR Nanao Line Tatat Station, excellent access to National Route 249, highly convenient. There is an adjacent field and an attached outbuilding as storage (wood with tile roof, 2-story: 1F 18.91㎡, 2F 18.91㎡). No signs of water damage visible upon inspection. The property was vacant for approximately 3 years at the time of survey, during which the water was shut off. Floor slope and warping observed in places. Separate from the main property, there is a nearby building formerly used as a workshop with land, offering parking for 2 vehicles. (Please consult separately if interested in simultaneous purchase.) Sale is on an as-is basis.
