Spacious 10DK Traditional House in Iga City, Mie Prefecture
This substantial property offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Japanese architectural history. Built in January 1956, this 70-year-old wooden house presents a generous 205.22 square meters of living space across two storeys, situated on a large 326.37 square meter corner plot. The layout is a classic 10DK, providing ample room for a large family or multi-generational living. The property is designated as an akiya (vacant house) and is ready for a new owner to bring it back to life.
According to the agent's notes, the property's equipment includes separate bath and toilet rooms, a public water supply, a sewer system, and propane gas. Special remarks indicate proximity to an elementary school (1.0km) and a junior high school (0.9km), as well as a supermarket (4.8km) and a convenience store (1.8km). A critical note advises that the water heater requires checking, with replacement being a potential case. The property features parking for two or more cars, a south-facing orientation, and is located in a quiet residential area. Additional highlights include a system kitchen, two toilets, a reheating function for the bath, suitability for two-generation households, and a monitor-equipped intercom.
The property is located in Iga City's Tsugecho district, a historic area in Mie Prefecture. Iga City is famously known as the birthplace of the Iga-ryu school of ninjutsu, and is home to the Iga-ryu Ninja Museum, a major tourist attraction that offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of the shinobi. The closest major landmark is the historic Iga Ueno Castle, a beautifully preserved hilltop castle also known as the White Phoenix Castle.
