Former Sake Shop Turned Residential and Commercial Property in Kurashiki, Okayama
This unique property in Kurashiki, Okayama, is a former sake shop that has been converted into a combined residential and commercial space, offering immediate viewing availability. The building is a two-story steel structure built in March 1970, with a substantial total floor area of approximately 432.93 square meters (about 130.96 tsubo). The layout is a spacious 6SDK, which includes six rooms plus service rooms, a separate bath and toilet, and two dedicated toilet facilities.
The property is equipped with propane gas, city water supply, sewerage, and electricity. Special notes from the agent detail the road access: it fronts a 3.7-meter wide public road to the north, with a paved frontage of 17.4 meters on a one-sided street. A key feature is the inclusion of one free parking space, and the property is prepared for IT-based important explanation procedures (IT重説対応物件). The land, with an area of 292.73 square meters (about 88.55 tsubo), is fully owned (ownership rights) and is located in a quasi-industrial zone within the urbanization promotion area. The current condition of the property is vacant.
The property is situated in the Kojima Hieda-cho district of Kurashiki City, a historically rich area known for its denim production and connection to the Seto Inland Sea. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Kojima area is often called "Jeans Street" and is considered the birthplace of Japanese denim. The closest major landmark is the iconic Seto Ohashi Bridge, a series of double-decker bridges connecting Okayama Prefecture to Kagawa Prefecture across the Seto Inland Sea, offering spectacular views and engineering marvel.
