A Traditional Japanese Home in Gujo, Gifu
Key equipment and facilities include a shower, a separate bath and toilet room, two toilets total, electricity, a septic tank (汲取), propane gas, and a traditional Japanese-style room (和室). Special notes indicate that the house currently has no running water, relying on mountain spring water (山水生活). While the floors are solid, the roof is collapsed, there are areas with water leaks, and some windows are broken. However, with some renovation, it presents a chance to live compactly. The agent remarks that price reduction negotiations are possible depending on conditions, and the property is suited for rural life and comes with farmland.
Notable features highlight its status as an Akiya Bank property. The surrounding area has light traffic, is close to a ski resort, offers pastoral and mountain views, and the home is a two-story build.
The home is located in the serene Shirotori-cho area of Gujo City, Gifu Prefecture. Gujo City is famously known for Gujo Hachiman, a historic castle town often called "Little Kyoto" for its pristine canals and traditional atmosphere. The area is a hub for traditional Japanese food replica sample making, a craft for which the region is internationally renowned. The closest major landmark is the stunning Gujo Hachiman Castle, a mountaintop fortress offering panoramic views of the surrounding valleys.
