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

Recommended points: Located in the "Kawanishi district," about 20 minutes by car from Tokamachi city center. Rice paddies spread out before the property, offering seasonal views typical of Tokamachi. The neighborhood features "Noguchi Mizubashō Park," which is spectacular in spring. The entrance and dining kitchen are spacious, with a 6-tatami room and two 10-tatami Japanese-style rooms on the 2nd and 3rd floors. The 1st floor can be used for storage, making it convenient for storing large items and tools. Except for some areas, the roof is a natural snow-shedding type, reducing the burden of snow removal in winter. / Roof snow removal: Natural snow-shedding roof (snow removal required for veranda and garage) / Special notes: Attached farmland (field: 108 m²)
