Rural Retreat with Farmland and Forest in Mihara, Hiroshima
This unique property offers a rare opportunity to own a substantial piece of rural Japan, complete with a house, farmland, and forested land. The residence itself provides a spacious layout with five rooms plus a traditional doma (earthen-floored entryway), offering flexible living space. The total building area is 173.55 square meters, situated on a generous 925.45 square meter plot of land.
According to the agent's notes, the property is equipped with electricity, sewerage, propane gas, and a well. A key feature is that this is a registered property with the Mihara City Akiya Bank, a scheme designed to match vacant houses with new owners, often facilitating revitalization in rural areas.
The home includes several desirable features: parking for two or more vehicles, a south-facing orientation, a quiet residential setting, a system kitchen, two toilets, a reheating function for the bath, suitability for multi-generational living, a corner lot location, and a monitor-equipped intercom. The structure is a single-story wooden building, though the exact year of construction is unknown. The property is currently vacant, and the handover timing is negotiable.
Located in the Yawata-cho Hagiwara area of Mihara City, Hiroshima Prefecture, this property is surrounded by nature. The area is known for its serene countryside atmosphere. A notable landmark in the broader Mihara region is the impressive Mihara Castle, a reconstructed hilltop castle offering panoramic views of the Seto Inland Sea. The property provides a peaceful lifestyle while remaining within reach of Hiroshima's urban centers.
