A Spacious Family Home in Mitane, Akita
This substantial property in Mitane Town, Akita Prefecture, offers a rare opportunity to acquire a large, move-in-ready home. The house is a 7LDK layout, providing seven rooms plus a living, dining, and kitchen area, making it ideal for a large or multi-generational family. With a total building area of 185.62 square meters spread over two stories and a generous land plot of 326.83 square meters, there is ample space for comfortable living and outdoor activities. The property is situated on a corner plot in a quiet, south-facing residential neighborhood and includes parking for two or more vehicles.
The property is equipped with essential facilities, including a toilet, bath, electricity, water supply, and sewerage. Additional features noted by the agent include city gas, a system kitchen, two toilets, a re-heating function for the bath water, suitability for two-generation living, and a monitor-equipped intercom. The house was built in March 1983, meaning it is 42 years old, and while it requires some minor repairs, it is presented as being ready to live in after this basic refurbishment.
Mitane Town is located in the scenic northern region of Akita Prefecture, an area known for its natural beauty and agricultural heritage. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Hachirogata Lagoon was once Japan's second-largest lake before a massive land reclamation project in the post-war era transformed much of it into farmland. The closest major landmark is the iconic Shirakami-Sanchi, a UNESCO World Heritage site comprising one of the last remaining virgin beech forests in the world, offering breathtaking hiking and nature trails approximately an hour's drive away.
