From the listing 5DK single-story house with spacious land for comfortable living.
Specifications
Where a detail is not shown, the source listing did not state it. We leave it out rather than guess.
The price in context
2,036 yen
Asking price per sqm of land
17,900 yen
Nearest official land benchmark, per sqm
The nearest official land-price benchmark is about 11,600 yen per sqm, up about 6% over five years (10,900 to 11,600), which the survey classes as rising.
The asking price works out at about 2,036 yen per sqm of land, 89% below the nearest residential benchmark of about 17,900 yen per sqm. The benchmark is for bare land; akiya prices usually bundle a worn building, so a large gap is normal and does not by itself mean a bargain.

Thinking of renting it out?
What the published rules and maps say about letting this home to short-stay guests, line by line, with sources. This is not a verdict or advice. The town, the bank and the licensing office have the final word.
In Japan, home-sharing (minpaku) under the national home-sharing law is capped at 180 nights a year. A ryokan or inn licence is a separate route with its own building and zoning rules.
-
Local home-sharing ordinance
Nagano Prefecture has an ordinance that limits where or when home-sharing runs.
On top of the 180-night national cap, the ordinance can rule out some areas or periods, so the exact address matters.
