A Terraced House in Nara City with Unique Considerations
This property is a second-hand terraced house located in the Tanaka-cho area of Nara City, Nara Prefecture. Built in November 1989, it is a three-story wooden structure with a total floor area of 90.58㎡ (approximately 27.40 tsubo) and sits on a land area of 66.36㎡ (approximately 20.07 tsubo). The layout is a 4DK, offering a spacious configuration for family living.
The property is equipped with propane gas, a public water supply, an individual septic tank (jōkasō), electricity, and a balcony. A significant feature is the inclusion of a free parking space. The road access details are specific: the property fronts onto a one-way road to the north, with a road width of 4.4 meters. The frontage is 5.2 meters on a private road, for which there is a shared maintenance burden of 1/12.
Critical notes from the agent provide essential information for potential buyers. The land is within a City Planning Act "Adjustment Area" (shigaika chōsei kuiki). Crucially, because the building was originally approved as part of a row of terraced houses (連棟), it is not possible to rebuild this unit individually. Other important remarks confirm the use of an individual septic tank and propane gas. The property boundaries are not explicitly marked, and there are outdoor air conditioning units, some of which may cross over the property line and some which may not.
The Tanaka-cho area offers a residential atmosphere within the historic city of Nara. A short distance away lies Nara Park, one of Japan's most famous landmarks and a major tourist attraction. The park is home to hundreds of freely roaming deer, considered messengers of the gods in Shinto belief, and iconic temples like Tōdai-ji, which houses a colossal bronze statue of Buddha.
