A Historic Rental House in Shimane's Iinan Town
According to the agent's notes, the main house requires large-scale renovation, specifically for the water fixtures and external fittings/doors. An outbuilding (naya) on the premises is currently unusable in its present state. The property is available only on a fixed-term lease agreement. Prospective tenants must be willing to maintain the environment within and around the property, including grass cutting, and be capable of engaging fully with the local community.
The layout is a 4K (four rooms plus a kitchen). Key features include a separate bathroom and toilet, a south-facing orientation, flooring, and air conditioning. Parking is available in the surrounding area, and there is a space for a washing machine. Pet ownership is negotiable. The rent, security deposit, key money, and management fees are all listed as negotiable or unknown.
The area of Iinan Town in Shimane Prefecture is known for its beautiful satoyama landscapes, where traditional farming life harmonizes with the surrounding mountains and forests. An interesting local fact is that the town is part of the "Shimane Winery" project, cultivating grapes and producing wine in a region more famous for its sake. The closest major landmark is the iconic Izumo Taisha, one of Japan's oldest and most important Shinto shrines, located approximately an hour's drive away.
