Property Overview in Soma City, Fukushima
This property is located in Soma City, Fukushima Prefecture, and offers a versatile opportunity. The land measures 412 square meters (124 tsubo), with a building of 128 square meters (38 tsubo). The structure is a two-story wooden house built in March 1984 (Showa 59). It is currently vacant and will be handed over in its current condition.
The building has sustained damage from the Great East Japan Earthquake and the April 2022 earthquake. For long-term habitation, demolition and rebuilding are recommended rather than renovation. The price has been set low to account for demolition costs. The lot is spacious enough to potentially build two houses, allowing the possibility of living on half the land and renting out the other half.
A shopping mall is a 3-minute walk away, featuring a supermarket, home center, bookstore, shoe store, coin laundry, Shimamura, and Daiso, covering most daily necessities. Despite the proximity, the property is on the back side of the mall's main entrance, resulting in less traffic and a relatively quiet environment. The previous owners lived here as a family but moved as their children became independent and the house became too large for elderly residents.
According to hazard maps, the property is outside flood hazard areas and has not been affected by past flood disasters. It is approximately 5 km from the coast, with no risk of tsunamis, and there are no nearby mountains prone to landslides. The asking price is 9,800,000 yen. This is a land-with-old-building sale, and the transaction will be based on the current condition and public registry.
