A Remarkably Renovated Retreat in Ito, Shizuoka
This unique property in Ito City, Shizuoka Prefecture, offers an exceptional opportunity. The two-story wooden house, built 45 years ago, has undergone comprehensive renovations in 2018, including the roof, exterior walls, and interior. The result is a stylish and move-in-ready space with minimal remaining items, and the few pieces left are noted for their fashionable appeal.
The home features a 2LDK layout with a total floor area of 55.48 sqm. The interior has been tastefully redone, with a color scheme that harmonizes with the lush green surroundings visible from the windows. The property includes a bathroom with classic black tiles and a light blue bathtub. A particularly notable feature is the possibility of connecting a private hot spring (onsen) supply, though this requires a separate fee. The property also comes with parking.
The location is a major draw. Ito City is part of the popular Izu Peninsula, known for its hot springs, including the famed Ito Onsen. The area boasts a mild climate year-round and offers a wealth of attractions, from beaches and sculpture parks to unique museums. An interesting local fact is that Ito is home to the world's only 'Cat Museum'. The property is approximately 40 minutes by bus from Ito Station, which offers direct access to Tokyo Station in about 75 minutes, making it feasible for commuting.
