Japanese address

Full description

Property has spacious fields nearby, with agricultural land extending behind the site. Ceiling height is low in some areas. Due to the long vacancy period, water-related fixtures throughout require repair or renovation. The building portion is largely unregistered (registration and surveying procedures to be handled by current owner). Inheritance procedures are not yet completed; procedures will be undertaken after a buyer is found, which may take longer than a typical sale. Adjacent agricultural land allows for home vegetable gardening (agricultural land sales require separate consultation with the Agricultural Committee). Electrical, gas, water, toilet, and bath facilities may require repairs.
