From the listing
The home in Chichibu City's Kondo Town is located west of Chichibu's central district and east of the clear Arakawa River. Kondo Town is a district where older homes and newer residences are well mixed. From the home, a scenic view of the Arakawa can be enjoyed from Sakura Bridge about a 4-minute walk away. About a 14-minute walk from this home is Bessho Sports Park with metasequoia and cherry tree groves, perfect for walks. The Kids Park at the entrance is a good play area for young children. Chichibu Muse Park's south entrance is about 4 kilometers away with the Ginkgo Tree Sky Road for walking, beautiful autumn foliage, and excellent views from the observation deck. Even a sea of clouds can be seen from nearby! / Special notes: Land area is from the registered property record. Building area is from the registered property record.

Area and hazard data
4 checks clear, 1 to know about, 1 not applicable. Each check is against a government map for this exact point. Where a map is missing or we can't use it, we say so; that never means there's no risk.
