Spacious Rural Retreat with Panoramic Views in Miyazaki
This unique property offers an exceptional opportunity for a peaceful country lifestyle on an expansive plot of over 3,350 square meters (approximately 1,000 tsubo) in Miyazaki's Higashimorokata District. Built in 1949, this 73.00㎡ single-story wooden house sits on a high plateau, providing excellent views of the surrounding natural landscape. The 2DK layout is complemented by a vast outdoor space, perfect for gardening, hobby farming, or simply enjoying the tranquility.
Key features and equipment, as noted by the agent, include a system kitchen, counter kitchen, gas cooktop, bath with reheating function, bathroom dryer, washbasin with shower, washlet toilet seat, walk-in closet, storage in all rooms, TV monitor door phone, and underfloor heating. The property is described as all-electric and barrier-free, with a south-facing orientation and parking included. Other utilities include public water supply, propane gas, a septic tank system, a dedicated bath, a dedicated toilet, and a gas cooktop.
Special remarks from the agent provide crucial details: The property is located in a natural, rich environment ideal for rural living. The water supply is branched and piped from the west side of the adjacent land. The toilet is a simplified flush type. As the property is currently occupied, prior confirmation is required for internal viewings. The extensive grounds require maintenance such as grass cutting and tree pruning. Part of the land is within a special landslide warning zone. There are separate residential buildings, sheds, and warehouses on the premises. Notably, the main house features a traditional irori (sunken hearth), a charming vestige of its 1949 construction era.
The area of Higashimorokata County is known for its lush, green scenery and relaxed pace of life. An interesting local fact is that Miyazaki Prefecture is often called the "Sunrise Capital" of Japan due to its mythological connections in Japanese creation stories. For a major tourist attraction, residents can easily access the stunning Takachiho Gorge, a nationally designated scenic spot and Natural Monument famous for its sheer volcanic cliffs and the beautiful Minainotaki waterfall, approximately a 90-minute drive north.
