A Historic 1885 Farmhouse in Asakura, Fukuoka
The main building spans a total floor area of 148.02 square meters across two stories, featuring a spacious 6DK layout ideal for a large family or creative repurposing. The land area is a generous 299.6 square meters. A significant feature is the presence of an attached outbuilding totaling 163 square meters (115 sqm on the first floor and 48 sqm on the second), which also requires renovation but offers substantial additional space for a workshop, studio, or guest quarters. The agent notes specify that renovation is necessary for both structures. Furthermore, there is an adjacent plot of land for sale that is contiguous with this property, available for discussion with the seller.
The property is in a non-urban planning area, offering flexibility, and the land rights are freehold (ownership). It is currently vacant and ready for immediate handover. Utilities include propane gas.
