Full description
With scenic waterfront ambiance along the Minato River and sweeping views of the Tateyama mountain range across the sea, this home offers walking courses tailored to your mood, complete with Himi's only craft beer shop nearby. This time we're introducing a property located in Minamiomachi, Himi City. Just nearby the property is the Minato River, famous for its Hattori-kun mechanical clock, and you can reach the coastline in just a 3-minute walk. During cherry blossom season, you can enjoy the scenery along the Minato River, and on fine days you can take in sweeping views of the Tateyama mountain range from the seaside. On good mood days, you can also enjoy craft beer at nearby Bloomin' while strolling the town. You can change how you enjoy the town depending on your mood that day. This is a property in an area packed with Himi's charms. As for the house itself, it appears to be an unremarkable traditional townhouse from the outside, but inside it has been partially renovated, leaving a first impression of livability. The layout is very simple, but the beams use thick, impressive timber, exuding refined simplicity. The water features have been completely renovated. Given the current high cost of living, it is difficult to recommend a renovation countryside lifestyle; however, this property is characterized by minimal renovation requirements, even for those seeking cleanliness. However, there is termite damage at the boundary between the kitchen and the entrance-side room, which will need to be addressed. The second floor is also simple with continuous room layouts. Precisely because of this simplicity, you could construct your own personal space showcasing cherished lighting and furniture. Morning walks along the seaside, afternoon reading surrounded by your favorite furniture, this is a home recommended for those seeking that kind of countryside lifestyle.
