Vacant House in Minamiise Town: A Coastal 5DK with Renovation Potential
This property is a vacant detached house located in the coastal town of Minamiise, Mie Prefecture. Built in January 1970, this 56-year-old wooden structure offers a generous 5DK layout with a total floor area of 99.36 square meters on a 59.5 square meter plot of land. The house has been unoccupied for approximately 28 years and is being sold as-is, with any necessary repairs to be the responsibility of the future occupant. It is situated in a quiet, south-facing residential neighborhood, conveniently close to local shops and supermarkets within 0.2 km.
The property's equipment and facilities include a toilet, bath, electricity, a septic tank (汲取), propane gas, and other water supply and drainage systems. Special features of the house include two toilets, a system kitchen, a bath with a reheating function (追焚機能), a monitor-equipped intercom, and its suitability for multi-generational living (二世帯向). It is also located on a corner lot. Parking is available for two or more vehicles.
Minamiise Town is part of the scenic Shima Peninsula, known for its rugged coastline and rich seafood. An interesting local fact is that the area is famous for its cultured pearls, a legacy of the pioneering work of Kokichi Mikimoto in the nearby city of Toba. The closest major tourist attraction is the historic Kumano Kodō pilgrimage routes, a UNESCO World Heritage site, with access points within the wider region offering spiritual hikes through ancient forests and along dramatic coastlines.
