Spacious Traditional Home in the Picturesque Mountain City of Ono
This substantial 158.13㎡ wooden house, built in 1974, offers a rare opportunity for a serene lifestyle in the heart of nature-rich Ono City, Fukui Prefecture. The property sits on a 243.09㎡ plot and features a two-story layout with multiple rooms, allowing for flexible use of space. The tatami-mat Japanese-style rooms provide a calming atmosphere filled with the warmth of natural wood, a hallmark of traditional Japanese architecture.
According to the agent's notes, the property is situated in a highly convenient location with daily amenities within easy reach. A supermarket is just 350m away, a bus stop is 150m from the Sakura Park bus stop, and the post office is a mere 400m distance. The land is leased, but the listed transaction price includes both the house and the land rights. Important infrastructure details include: the area is not served by public water supply, so water is sourced from a well; drainage is handled by a private septic tank; while a public sewer line is available with a connecting manhole already installed, it is not currently connected to the house. The road on the south side is a privately maintained road with official designation.
Ono City is nestled in the inland mountains of Fukui, surrounded by beautiful peaks including the famous Mt. Arashima, one of Japan's 100 Famous Mountains. The city is renowned for its abundant pure water, with spots like the 'Oshozu' spring, designated as one of Japan's 100 Best Waters. The historic street grid, laid out over 400 years ago, leads to the iconic Echizen Ono Castle, often called the 'Castle in the Sky' when mist fills the valley below it, offering breathtaking views and a deep sense of history.
