Spacious 7DK Traditional Home with Garden in Nakatsugawa's Tsukechi District
This substantial property, located in the central area of Tsukechi Town, Nakatsugawa City, offers a rare opportunity to own a traditional Japanese home with generous space and unique features. The house boasts seven rooms plus a dining-kitchen (7DK) layout, providing ample room for a large family or creative use. A distinctive highlight is the inclusion of an irori, a traditional Japanese sunken hearth, perfect for creating a cozy, authentic atmosphere. The property also comes with a garden, offering outdoor space for relaxation or cultivation.
According to the agent's notes, the property requires some attention. The current condition is that of an akiya (vacant house) needing cleaning and removal of belongings, which is the responsibility of either the seller or buyer. Several repairs are needed, including work on some faucets, the kitchen, the bath, the changing room, and there is some water leakage. An external staircase leads to a second-floor storage room. The seller will not bear the cost of these repairs, though some expenses may be negotiable. The home's facilities include a separate bath and toilet, a water supply, sewerage, propane gas, and the aforementioned garden.
