Seaside Tranquility in Fukui: A Spacious Wooden Home with Ocean Views
This charming second-hand detached house, located in the quiet residential area of Menadori-cho, Fukui City, Fukui Prefecture, offers a peaceful retreat with the added benefit of ocean views. Built in January 1988, this wooden structure sits on a generous 165.34 sqm plot of land, with a total floor area of 62.98 sqm arranged in a 2K layout. The property features a Japanese-style room (8 tatami mats) and a Western-style room (10 tatami mats), along with a service room and a loft, providing flexible living and storage space.
The property is equipped with propane gas, a public water supply, a septic tank, and electricity. It includes two toilets, one with a warm-water washing bidet seat, and comes with lighting fixtures installed. Special notes detail the road access: the property faces south onto a 6-meter wide public road with a frontage of 12.8 meters, and no positional designation is required. The agent's remarks highlight key features: it is a quiet home with a view of the sea, includes a loft, but has no parking space. Prospective owners should note that a water heater needs to be installed and there is an existing extension on the property.
The Fukui area is rich in natural beauty and history, being part of the Hokuriku region along the Sea of Japan. An interesting local fact is that Fukui Prefecture is often called the "Dinosaur Kingdom" due to the significant number of fossils discovered there, including those of the Fukuiraptor. The closest major landmark is the stunning Tojinbo Cliffs, a series of rugged, columnar basalt cliffs along the coast in Sakai City, which are a nationally designated Place of Scenic Beauty and a popular tourist destination for their dramatic seaside views.
