Charming Country Home in West Izu's Rural Landscape
A delightful two-story traditional home awaits in the scenic town of Ugusu, where verdant mountains meet the sea in northern West Izu. Set amidst peaceful rice fields, this 109-square-meter residence offers an authentic Japanese countryside living experience just a 15-minute walk along the riverside.
The property features five spacious rooms in a classic 5K layout, including four 6-tatami Japanese-style rooms and an 8-tatami Western-style room. Built in 1981, the home showcases traditional elements like carefully crafted shoji screens while providing modern conveniences with two bathrooms and a functional kitchen.
A modest balcony and garden complement the living space, offering views of the surrounding pastoral setting. While the 2-meter-wide access road limits vehicle access to kei cars only, the property includes parking for one vehicle. This affordable countryside retreat presents an opportunity to embrace the slower pace of rural Japanese life while enjoying the natural beauty of the Izu Peninsula.
