Full description

Property overview: The property is regularly maintained by the owner and the interior is relatively clean. Some wallpaper replacement and screen door repairs are needed. The vacant period is short, and early occupancy is possible. The lot is well-organized, faces south, and has good sunlight with a bright impression. / Surrounding area: Nearby is the farmers' market "Ajiwai no Asa" which sells fresh vegetables and fruits from local farmers. / Remarks: To use the sewer system, a septic tank installation is required (subsidies available). The property is designated as a land development and earthwork regulation area. As it is within an archaeological site zone, prior notification is required if the lot is to be excavated. Furniture and household items are currently in the house but will be removed by the owner before delivery.
