Secluded DIY Retreat in Okinawa's Resort Zone
This unique property presents a one-room house on a spacious 549m² plot in the scenic Onna Village of Okinawa. Built in December 1980, this 89.05m² wooden structure is currently vacant and requires building repairs, offering a prime opportunity for a hands-on buyer. The property is situated on high ground, providing open views and a sense of tranquility, with the ocean visible from the location. It can accommodate parking for three vehicles and notably generates an annual income of 36,000 yen from a mobile phone base station on the land.
Critical agent notes have been translated for full disclosure. The property falls under the Onna Village Environmental Conservation Ordinance and is designated for resort use. The listing explicitly states the building needs repair and the current status is that it is an akiya (vacant house). Regarding nearby facilities: Anbuso Elementary School is about a 49-minute walk, Unna Junior High School is about a 17-minute drive, and a Lawson convenience store (Onna Inbu Beach Mae shop) is approximately a 5-minute drive away. The agent operates on weekends and holidays from 9:00 to 18:00 and encourages inquiries.
The area of Onna Village is renowned for its stunning coastline, part of Okinawa's main tourist belt. It is famous for its crystal-clear waters, luxury resorts, and exceptional diving and snorkeling spots along the Cape Manzamo coast. An interesting local fact is that the village's name, "Onna," literally means "woman" in Japanese, stemming from a local legend. The closest major tourist attraction is the iconic Manzamo cliff formation, a scenic spot with panoramic ocean views shaped like an elephant's trunk.
