Spacious Traditional Wooden Home in Historic Takaoka

This substantial property, located in the Showa-cho district of Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture, presents a rare opportunity to own a classic Japanese wooden home on a generous plot of land. Built in August 1977, the house offers a total floor area of 178.41 square meters arranged in a 6DK layout, providing ample space for a large family or creative renovation. The property sits on a 330.51 square meter land parcel zoned for quasi-industrial use, with ownership rights and immediate availability.

Key equipment and features include public water supply, public gas, and a septic tank drainage system. The property is equipped with a dedicated bathroom and a dedicated toilet. A notable feature is the availability of parking space for two vehicles. Special notes from the agent indicate that an extension was added to the building in September 1996, and the garage is not officially registered. The current status is vacant and ready for immediate handover.

The area of Takaoka is rich in history and craftsmanship. Founded as a castle town for the Maeda clan in the early Edo period, the city has been a center for traditional industries like copperware, lacquerware, and sedge hats for over 400 years, earning its reputation as a "monozukuri" (craftsmanship) town. An interesting fact is that Takaoka is home to Japan's tallest Great Buddha statue, the Takaoka Daibutsu, a magnificent bronze statue cast using the city's renowned metalworking techniques. The closest major landmark is the iconic Takaoka Castle Park, the site of the original castle, now known for its beautiful cherry blossoms and historic atmosphere.
