Nestled in a charming coastal town on the Seto Inland Peninsula lies a unique traditional Japanese home built by a master carpenter grandfather. This well-preserved property features traditional wood joinery construction, with minimal structural warping thanks to its robust beam system. The home underwent renovations including roof tile replacement about 10 years ago.
The 74.04m² two-story residence includes both living spaces and a former shop area, with 63m² of the shop portion recently cleared for potential parking or gardening use. Located just 2 minutes from the waterfront in a quiet laneway typical of Setouchi architecture, the property offers easy access to fishing spots, the Kaminoseki Strait Road Station, and local amenities including the Hatoko no Yu natural hot spring.
While not directly overlooking the ocean, the property's slightly inland position provides protection from both marine and mountain-related natural disasters. The area boasts a mild climate and scenic beauty that has served as a backdrop for TV dramas and films. The local government actively promotes migration to this historically and culturally rich region.
