Charming Countryside Home with Lake Views and Attached Farmland in Matsue City
This property is a second-hand detached house located in the Shijimicho area of Matsue City, Shimane Prefecture. The area stretches along the southern shore of Lake Shinji, offering a unique coexistence of waterfront scenery and the tranquility of a rural satoyama landscape. A notable local resource is the "Kimachi stone," historically used for the stone steps and water channels of Matsue Castle, which quietly supports the town's history and scenery. A major charm of this property is the view where you can see both cherry blossoms and trains on the JR Kisuki Line.
Within the grounds, there is some garden space suitable for a small vegetable patch or flower bed. Furthermore, this property comes with approximately 129 tsubo (about 426 square meters) of farmland located about 1.3km away. Walking there for cultivation could be part of the appeal of country living. Currently, there is no parking space on the property. However, it has been decided that a community bus stop will be installed very close to the property (on or after April 1, 2028). The nearest station is about 1.0km away, broadening transportation options. A convenience store is 0.6km away, and a supermarket is 3.4km away.
The property is situated in the scenic Shijimicho area of Matsue City, known for its proximity to Lake Shinji, one of Japan's most beautiful sunsets spots. The area is a haven for birdwatchers and nature lovers. A major nearby landmark is the historic Matsue Castle, one of Japan's few remaining original feudal castles, offering a glimpse into the region's samurai past.
