Important remarks note that JR Kitsuki Station is 1.0km away, a supermarket is 800m, a convenience store is 500m, and the Kitsuki IC interchange is 2.9km. A critical note states there is a grave on the premises, but it is scheduled for removal and dismantling.
The Yatsusaka area provides a peaceful, green residential setting with easy access to daily necessities. An interesting local fact is that Kitsuki is renowned for its well-preserved samurai district, often called "Little Kyoto of Oita." The closest major tourist attraction is the historic Kitsuki Castle, a reconstructed hilltop fortress offering panoramic views of the city and Beppu Bay.
