Traditional Japanese Home in Sado City with Sea Proximity
This property is a traditional Japanese wooden single-story house located in a quiet residential area of Sado City, Niigata Prefecture. The home, built in February 1973, offers a generous 4DK layout with a total floor area of 86.95 square meters on a spacious 305.20 square meter plot of land. It is listed for sale at 2,000,000 JPY, though potential buyers should note that significant repairs are required. The property includes two or more parking spaces and is situated on a south-facing corner lot.
According to the agent's notes, the property's equipment and facilities include electricity, a septic tank (currently a pump-out system), propane gas, public water supply, and a garden. A special feature is an unregistered storehouse (土蔵) located behind the main residence. The property is highlighted for its location in a quiet residential neighborhood and its proximity to the sea.
Critical remarks from the agent provide essential distances to local amenities: the hospital (Sado General Hospital) is 8.3km away, city hall is 10.0km, a kindergarten is 0.1km, elementary school is 3.8km, junior high school is 3.7km, a supermarket is 3.3km, a post office is 0.3km, and a bus stop is just 0.1km from the property. It is important to note that while the sewer beneficiary charge has been paid, the current system is a pump-out type. The installation of a sewer connection and necessary internal repairs will be the responsibility of the buyer.
Sado Island is a destination rich in history and natural beauty, famously known as a place of exile for political dissidents during the Edo period, including the renowned Noh dramatist Zeami. The island's rugged coastline and mountainous interior offer stunning scenery. The closest major landmark to this property is Sado Kinzan, a historic gold mine that was once one of the most productive in Japan and is now a fascinating museum and UNESCO World Heritage candidate site, offering a glimpse into the island's prosperous past.
