Spacious 12LDK Traditional Home with Agricultural Land in Fukui City
This substantial property, located in the Honmachi area of Fukui City, Fukui Prefecture, presents a rare opportunity. The house offers a generous 12LDK layout, providing over 342 square meters of living space across two storeys, situated on a large plot of land measuring approximately 1,715 square meters. Built in January 1950, this 76-year-old wooden structure has undergone significant renovations, including updates to the kitchen, bathroom, and toilet facilities.
According to the agent's notes, the property is equipped with a toilet, bath, running water, sewerage, and propane gas. A critical feature is its location within a City Planning Act Adjustment Area (市街化調整区域). This designation means that any future construction or significant modification will require an application for permission under the City Planning Act. Furthermore, the sale includes adjacent agricultural land. When purchasing the house together with this farmland, an application for permission under Article 3 of the Agricultural Land Act is necessary. Prospective buyers are advised to consult with the City Planning Division and the Agricultural Committee Secretariat beforehand.
The home is situated in a quiet, south-facing residential neighborhood and includes desirable features such as a system kitchen, two toilets, a bath with re-heating function, a monitor-equipped intercom, and parking for two or more vehicles. Its corner lot position adds to its appeal. The property is currently vacant and ready for discussion regarding the handover date.
The area around Fukui City is rich in history and natural beauty. An interesting fact is that Fukui Prefecture is renowned for its high-quality eyewear production, accounting for a significant portion of Japan's eyeglass frames. The closest major landmark is the historic Fukui Castle Ruins, a scenic park that was once the seat of the Matsudaira clan and offers a glimpse into the region's samurai past.
