Traditional Wooden House with Garden in Chikuma, Nagano

This property is a traditional Japanese wooden house located in the Ōaza Haneo area of Chikuma City, Nagano Prefecture. Built in January 1965, the two-storey structure offers a total floor area of 87.03 square meters (approximately 26.32 tsubo) on a generous plot of land measuring 218.17 square meters (approximately 65.99 tsubo). The layout is a 5K configuration, providing five rooms plus a kitchen.

Essential property details from the agent's notes include the following facilities and equipment: the house uses propane gas and features a garden. Special notes regarding road access specify that the property fronts two roads (excluding corner lots): a 1.5-meter-wide road to the north and a 1.2-meter-wide road to the west. Critical remarks include: the stated construction year is based on municipal tax records as it is not recorded in the official registry; the property will be sold 'as-is' with the seller exempt from liability for non-conformities; if connecting to the agricultural community sewer system, a joining fee is required; there are unregistered structures on the land: a storage shed and a bath; there is a level difference between the plot and the northern road, making vehicle access impossible from that side. Vehicle access is also impossible from the western road.

The property is situated in a quiet residential area of Chikuma City, a region known for its scenic beauty and historical significance in the heart of Nagano. An interesting local fact is that the nearby area is famous for its terraced rice fields, which create stunning seasonal landscapes. The closest major landmark is the historic Obasute Station on the Shinonoi Line, famously referenced in Japanese poetry for its connection to the legend of abandoning an elderly woman, and offering panoramic views of the surrounding valley.
