Spacious Two-Story Wooden House in Sanjo, Niigata
This property is a two-story wooden house built in November 1977, located in Kamisugoro, Sanjo City, Niigata Prefecture. The house is currently vacant, allowing for easy viewing. A keybox is installed near the front door on-site, enabling self-guided viewings even for last-minute requests. Please note there is no standard-sized car parking space within the property grounds; visitors are requested to park nearby.
The total floor area is 102.68 sqm (approximately 31.06 tsubo) with a 5SK layout. The rooms consist of three 6-jo Japanese-style rooms and two 6-jo Western-style rooms, plus a 6-jo service room. A 2023 model air conditioner is installed in one of the first-floor Western-style rooms (formerly a 6-jo Japanese room). The kitchen floor is noted as needing replacement. Hot water is supplied by an instantaneous water heater, with a gas stove to be installed separately. The bath uses an individual propane balance kettle system and includes a shower hose. The toilet has been converted to a Western-style, simple flush type (waste is collected). Other equipment includes a washing machine space.
Special notes from the agent detail several important legal and structural points. Part of the property plot includes an unregistered (owner-unknown) parcel of land on the road side. The total road frontage, excluding the unregistered portion, is approximately 6.7 meters. Part of the existing house is built over this unregistered land. The front road is a Sanjo City road, but it does not qualify as a road under the Building Standards Act. Therefore, for any rebuilding, an application for permission under Article 43, Paragraph 2, Item 2 of the Building Standards Act is required, and it is believed to meet standard 3-a. As the road width is about 3.3 meters, a 2.0 meter setback from the road centerline is required for rebuilding, estimated to be about 35 cm from the current boundary line, resulting in an approximate 2.34 sqm setback area. The property is sold in its current condition, and boundary confirmation will not be performed. The fixed asset tax valuation for the land is 1,022,078 yen and for the building is 1,210,175 yen, with an annual tax of 16,900 yen.
The property is situated within a 20-minute walk from Yahiko Line's Tsubame-Sanjo Station. The neighborhood offers various amenities including pharmacies, convenience stores, bookshops, hardware stores, drugstores, and larger shopping facilities like Welcia, Yaoya, Uoroku, and Aeon within a radius of approximately 1.2 km.
