Special notes from the agent: There is no building directly in front, allowing for two-sided natural light. The property is being sold in its current condition ('現状有姿渡し'). It is located within a large-scale facility restriction zone. As the current owners are in residence, viewings require prior arrangement.

The layout includes four Western-style rooms and a large 19-jo combined living, dining, and kitchen area.

The area of Hakodate is rich in history, famously being one of the first Japanese ports to open to international trade in the 19th century. This history is beautifully preserved in the Motomachi district with its Western-style buildings. A major landmark not far from this property is the iconic Hakodate Park, one of Japan's oldest public parks, known for its beautiful cherry blossoms in spring and its historical museum.
