Spacious Traditional Property with Large Garden in Kure, Hiroshima
This unique property in Kure City, Hiroshima Prefecture, offers a rare opportunity for a self-sufficient lifestyle or a creative renovation project. The seller purchased the land two years ago. The lot is a generous 400.19 square meters (approximately 121 tsubo) and features a traditional Japanese house estimated to be around 100 years old, along with a prefabricated storage shed. The old house was occupied until approximately four years ago, meaning it could be made habitable again with renovation. The property's main appeal lies in the potential of how to utilize the old house and the expansive garden.
The large garden is already set up for a vegetable patch, making it ideal for anyone dreaming of a self-sufficient, homesteading life. The transaction will be conducted 'as-is' (現状有姿) and based on the registered land area (公簿売買). Immediate transfer of ownership is possible, allowing for a quick handover to the new owner.
The area is part of the scenic Seto Inland Sea region. Kure City has a rich maritime history as a former major naval base and is now home to the fascinating Yamato Museum (Kure Maritime Museum), which showcases the history of Japanese shipbuilding and features a detailed model of the battleship Yamato. The property is situated in the Higashisozo-cho district, offering a blend of historical charm and natural beauty characteristic of the Hiroshima coastline.
