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

Inherited vacant property that was purchased but remains untouched due to being far away and difficult to visit for renovations. Now 47 years old. The boiler is brand new, though other parts likely need some renovation. The fish port is a 4-minute walk away. There is no parking on the property, but nearby monthly parking can be rented for around 2,000 yen. Rod stands are installed, allowing for direct cooking upon returning from fishing. A hidden retreat for fishermen.
