A Spacious Wooden Home in the Tranquil Vastness of Rikubetsu
The property is a wooden structure featuring a 3LDK layout, providing a comfortable living space with three bedrooms, a living room, dining room, and kitchen. The total floor area is 74.52 square meters (approximately 22.5 tsubo), a comfortable size for a family. The land itself is a significant feature, with a main plot of 872.79 square meters (about 264 tsubo) and an additional attached land parcel of 7,985 square meters classified as miscellaneous land, offering immense potential for gardening, small-scale farming, or simply enjoying the open air.
According to the agent's notes, the property has been vacant since June of Reiwa 5 (2023). The sale price is listed as 6,500,000 Yen, but is noted as being negotiable (売却価格応談). The sale is conditional on an 'as-is' transfer (現状渡しが条件). The property includes parking space and comes with three storage sheds. Key equipment includes air conditioning, a refrigerator, and a freezer. A crucial point to note is that the property is not connected to the sewer system (下水道未接続).
Rikubetsu is renowned for its stunning natural environment and is officially recognized as one of Japan's best stargazing spots due to its exceptionally clear and dark skies. The town even hosts an astronomical observatory, making it a haven for astronomy enthusiasts. The area is part of the vast Tokachi region of Hokkaido, known for its agricultural output and breathtaking national parks. A major landmark and tourist attraction relatively close by is the majestic Lake Akan, famous for its marimo (spherical algae) and Ainu cultural presentations, offering a deep dive into the indigenous culture of Hokkaido amidst a volcanic caldera landscape.
This property represents a chance to acquire a substantial amount of land with a solid, move-in-ready home in a location celebrated for its natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere. The negotiable price and the scale of the land make it a noteworthy consideration for a permanent residence or a countryside retreat.
