Important special notes from the agent specify that the judicial scrivener and gas company are to be designated by the seller, the property boundaries are not explicitly marked, and the building is unregistered, meaning the exact construction date is uncertain. Additionally, there is a separate outbuilding used as a combined residence and storage shed. The transaction is handled as a general intermediary (一般媒介). The property is currently vacant and ready for immediate handover.
The area of Shimotsuma offers a blend of rural tranquility and accessibility. An interesting local fact is that Shimotsuma is historically known for its production of kasuri (ikat) textiles, a traditional craft with deep roots in the region. For recreation and tourism, residents can easily visit the famous Tsukuba Mountain (Mount Tsukuba), a popular hiking destination with cable cars offering spectacular views of the Kanto plain, located a short drive away.
