Full description

Condition: Minor repairs (renovation) needed (repair items: interior finishes overall including wallpaper and tatami replacement, floor replacement with subfloor, plumbing fixtures replacement, etc.) / Remarks: Use of the bath heating system is unclear. The owner has no residence history (as this is an inherited property), so this could not be confirmed. The entire property is within a steep slope warning zone (colloquially 'Yellow Zone'). While reconstruction is possible, it is a high landslide-risk area. Interior details can be confirmed via the 'Kumamoto Prefecture Vacant House Bank Platform'.
