A Spacious Home in the Hot Spring Town of Nishiwaga, Iwate
This property is a two-storey wooden house located in the hot spring town of Yumoto, Nishiwaga Town, Waga District, Iwate Prefecture. The land area is 208.63 square meters, and the building has a total floor area of 138.08 square meters. The layout is described as a 10DK (2K) style, offering a generous amount of space suitable for a large family or for alternative uses such as a guesthouse or an atelier.
The property is currently occupied by the owner, but it can be vacated immediately upon sale, making it ready for move-in. The sale is on an as-is basis. The home is largely equipped with furniture and appliances, allowing a new owner to move in with minimal preparation. Included items are sofas, beds, a TV board, chests, a wooden hanger closet, shelves, tables, desks, two air conditioners, two televisions, a kotatsu, a refrigerator, two FF-type oil heaters, an oil fan heater, an oil stove, a drum-type washing machine with a dryer, a single-layer vertical washing machine, and a five-door refrigerator.
Renovations have been carried out on the bathroom (boiler), the first-floor toilet, the first-floor kitchen, and some rooms on both the first and second floors. The second floor also has a toilet and kitchen, but these have not been renovated as they were not in use. The kitchen stove has three burners and a grill, which requires a propane gas contract. The hot water for the kitchen and bath is heated by an external tank using kerosene, a design that helps to keep utility costs down.
The property sits in the heart of a small hot spring town surrounded by mountains, rivers, and forests. The area is known for its seasonal attractions, including riverside barbecues and camping in summer, snow festivals in winter, and autumn harvest festivals. Multiple hot spring sources are within walking distance, with facilities like Yutopia Yuda, Ushi-no-Yu, Sunayukko, and Sawauchi Baden offering a variety of bathing experiences. The nearby Waga River and public footbaths add to the area's charm.
