Thatched Roof Kominka in Ukiha City, Fukuoka

This property is a rare thatched-roof kominka (traditional folk house) located in Ukiha City, Fukuoka Prefecture. The main house was built over 80 years ago and is in good condition, requiring no major repairs to be habitable. The property sits on a 787 sqm plot of land, with a main building of 140 sqm and a shed of 58 sqm. The main building features a wooden structure with cedar bark roofing, while the shed has a steel frame with tile roofing.

The property is situated in a remote, isolated environment, offering a peaceful setting. It includes a rarely-used wood stove, a functional traditional cooking stove (okudo), and an irori (sunken hearth). The property also has access to delicious water drawn from a deep underground well. The current owner originally purchased the property for relocation or to open a cafe, but due to family circumstances, they are reluctantly putting it up for sale.

The property is ideal for relocation, as a private rental villa, a guesthouse, or even a cafe. However, due to its remote location and age, financing for purchase is unlikely to pass screening, so inquiries regarding loans are discouraged.
