Spacious Farmhouse with Mountain Views and Agricultural Land in Maebashi
According to the agent's notes, the property includes significant agricultural assets: a field with about 100 persimmon trees and a large 2,750 tsubo (approx. 9,090 sqm) rice paddy, perfect for those interested in large-scale farming. A notable financial benefit is a utility easement payment of 1,212,368 yen received every three years. However, there are annual fees for the Gunma irrigation water: 5,250 yen per 1,000 sqm for the rice field and 4,000 yen per 1,000 sqm for the cultivated field. The property connects to public sewerage via a U-shaped gutter leading to a waterway.
Important legal and registration notes: The buildings are unregistered, and their area should be referenced from the tax statement. While listed as a single-story building for tax purposes, the actual structure is two stories plus a basement. There are four additional附属建物 (subsidiary buildings). Land inheritance registration is incomplete, and all buildings are unregistered, with the process stated as "これから動く" (to be started).
The area is rich in natural hot springs, with several day-trip onsen facilities nearby, allowing for daily therapeutic baths. The unique地名 (place name) "Hanageishi" (鼻毛石町) is said to originate from stones ejected during a Mount Akagi eruption, which developed small holes where grass and moss grew, resembling鼻毛 (nose hair).
Living here places you within the scenic Gunma countryside, with the majestic profile of Mount Akagi, an active volcano and one of Japan's "Three Holy Mountains," dominating the northern horizon. The region is famous for its numerous hot spring resorts, with the popular Kusatsu Onsen being a major tourist attraction renowned for its high-quality, therapeutic waters.
