Full description

Property feature report: The exterior retains a nostalgic Showa-era charm with a calm, settled appearance. Yet stepping inside reveals a delightful surprise, the essential facilities for daily living are in remarkably clean condition, ready for immediate use. The property provides ample parking space essential for country living: one car is securely accommodated in the garage, with additional space for a second vehicle, allowing for dual-car ownership, DIY tool and material storage, or welcoming visiting friends. The luxury of capturing only the joy of handiwork. Among home-building projects, water fixtures like kitchens, bathrooms, and toilets typically demand the most cost and effort. This property retains these facilities in relatively clean condition, maintaining livable quality without major infrastructure work. This means you can dedicate all your energy and budget to design-focused renovation and DIY, painting walls your favorite colors, selecting preferred lighting, deciding how to transform tatami rooms. Low hurdles, high customization. This home offers plenty of such "delicious blank space." The Kubo area, though featuring new residential development within the city, maintains significant farmland and offers a residential neighborhood balancing livability with peaceful rural atmosphere. Station, town, sea, all at just-right distances. The location balance is exquisite: good access to Himi Station and downtown provides convenient shopping and mobility, while a short walk reaches the glistening Toyama Bay. Spend a leisurely holiday morning walking along the coast or spreading your favorite tools in the garage to maintain your car. You can cultivate quiet, enriching private time. "Gradually painting as you live." Because the foundation is solid, there is no need to rush completing everything. Live here, gradually adapt to the local environment, and slowly develop your space according to your preferences. Why not begin your own unique home-building story from this peaceful place in Himi?
