Historic Mountain Home with Natural Spring Water in Hida
Set high above Ema Castle in Gifu Prefecture's Hida region, this expansive traditional wooden home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Japanese forestry history. Built in 1920, the 366-square-meter residence sits on a generous 1,508-square-meter plot surrounded by deciduous forest.
The 13-room layout preserves the home's original character while providing ample living space across multiple tatami and Western-style rooms. A natural spring provides pristine drinking water, celebrated locally for its exceptional quality for tea and coffee.
Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the abundant wild mountain vegetables growing nearby and the stream teeming with river fish just steps from the property. The location offers peaceful seclusion while remaining accessible, with a bus stop 5 minutes away on foot and just 15 minutes drive from central Kamioka.
