Full description

A property located near the Anaji Junichiakari Shrine where works by sculptor Ishikawa Uncho remain. With adjacent large fields and the sound of a small stream audible from the 1st floor veranda windows. Showa-era interior atmosphere is preserved; some rooms require repairs, but with not too many rooms, it is an ideal property for family living. For snow preparation, the roof features natural snow shedding, and with a well dug around the residence, there is snow-melting functionality. While a car is essential being away from town center, there is a garage so winters are secure. / Repairs needed: Main house 2F tatami room floor and south-side storage wall require repair / Usage status: Vacant for 6 years (used several times per year) / Equipment: Natural snow shedding roof with snow-melting function from well. Fields on south and east sides of property.
