Historic 1868 Farmhouse with Spacious Land in Chikuhoku Village
According to the agent's notes, the property is equipped with propane gas, a public water supply, a private purification tank (jokaso), and electricity. A critical note from the agent states: "[Disaster Information] Outside of hazard area. [Other] The detached building from the main house has significant deterioration and requires demolition." This indicates the core structure is in a safe zone, but the outbuilding must be removed.
The location offers excellent access, with the Shimonoi Line's Sakanokita Station just a 1-minute walk (24 meters) away, and the Nagano Expressway accessible by car in approximately 8 minutes. The village provides a guarantee/support fund system for this property. The area is part of the scenic Shinshu region, known for its mountains and traditional culture. An interesting local fact is that Chikuhoku Village is located within the former Shinano Province, a historic region famed for its silk production. The closest major landmark is the iconic Matsumoto Castle, one of Japan's premier historic castles, located within a reasonable drive.
