Spacious Two-Building Property in Makurazaki, Kagoshima
This unique property in Makurazaki City, Kagoshima Prefecture, offers a rare opportunity to acquire two separate wooden buildings on a single, generous plot of land measuring 426.88 square meters. The main residence (Building A) features a traditional Japanese-style layout with three tatami rooms (6-jo, 4.5-jo, and 3-jo sizes), a kitchen, a bath, and a toilet. The second building (Building B) provides additional flexible space with an 8-jo Japanese room, a 4-jo Western-style room, its own kitchen, bath, and toilet, making it ideal for extended family, a home business, or rental income.
Key equipment and features include public water supply, town gas, a septic tank drainage system, a laundry area, indoor air conditioning for cooling and heating, a dedicated bath, and a dedicated toilet. It is important to note that Building A is connected to the sewer system, while Building B utilizes a pit toilet. The property also boasts a dedicated kitchen with gas and a garden.
Special notes from the agent indicate that some repair work is necessary, with the cost to be borne by the buyer. Critically, there is an option for both buildings to be demolished and the land delivered as vacant, providing a clean slate for new construction. The agent strongly advises an in-person viewing to confirm the property's condition. The location is conveniently situated approximately 600 meters from the city hall and 700 meters from kindergartens and similar facilities.
Makurazaki City, located at the southern tip of the Satsuma Peninsula, is nationally famous for its production of katsuobushi (dried bonito flakes). The compact city is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces the East China Sea to the south, offering a blend of coastal living and mountain scenery. An interesting local fact is that despite the city's total area, approximately 40% of the population lives on just 4.3% of the land, creating a vibrant, centralized urban community. The area is rich in natural beauty and marine activities, with the iconic volcanic sand beaches of Ibusuki, known for their natural sand baths, located within a reasonable driving distance along the coast.
