Seaside Character Home in Hagi with Panoramic Ocean Views
This unique property offers a rare opportunity to own a home directly facing the sea in Yamaguchi Prefecture's historic city of Hagi. The house is situated in a quiet residential neighborhood yet remains conveniently close to the city center. Its most defining feature is its immediate proximity to the ocean, providing stunning waterfront views right from the front of the property.
According to the agent's notes, the property's condition requires attention, with issues noted including floor sinking and tilting. Prospective buyers should factor in potential renovation costs. The home features a spacious 6DK layout across two stories, with a total building area of 90.22 square meters on a 93.22 square meter corner plot. Key facilities include a system kitchen, two toilets, a reheating function for the bath, a monitor-equipped intercom, and city gas. The property is suitable for multi-generational living and offers parking for two or more vehicles on a south-facing lot.
The location offers a tranquil seaside lifestyle. The nearest bus stop for the Hagi Circular 'Maaru' Bus is just a 2-minute walk away. However, daily amenities require a commute, with the closest supermarket approximately a 25-minute walk (2km) and Hagi City Hall about a 33-minute walk (2.7km). This property is designated as a 'U/I/J-turn Priority Property' until January 27, 2026, giving priority to individuals relocating from urban areas or returning to the region.
The surrounding Hagi area is steeped in history as a former castle town and a key site in the Meiji Restoration. A major landmark nearby is the UNESCO World Heritage site "Hagi Castle Town," featuring well-preserved samurai residences and historic streetscapes that offer a fascinating glimpse into Japan's feudal past.
