Property in Kawagoe, Saitama: A Family Home on High Ground
This property is a detached house situated in the Terao area of Kawagoe City, Saitama Prefecture. The home has been passed down through the owner's family, starting from their grandparents' generation and most recently occupied by an aunt. Following the aunt's passing, the property came under the ownership of the owner's elderly mother. The current owner is looking to sell the property as they are unable to manage it, leading to overgrown weeds that may inconvenience the neighbors.
The land is located on a hilltop, an area that has historically been free from flood damage. The surrounding neighborhood is rich in nature, with many nearby fields. The property is approximately a 19-minute walk from Shingashi Station. The house itself was built in 1971 (Showa 46) and is a traditional-style wooden structure. The owner suggests that the new buyer could either demolish the existing structure to build a new house or perform a full renovation to update the home while preserving its traditional character.
The property is being sold as a land-with-old-building package. The total land area is approximately 60 square meters, with a building area of approximately 50 square meters. The structure is a two-story wooden building that is currently vacant. The desired price is 6,000,000 yen. The transaction will be conducted on an as-is basis and based on the official registry.
