Spacious Countryside Home with Beach Access in Kagoshima
The property is equipped with propane gas, a public water supply, a septic tank, and electricity. The bathroom and toilet are separate, and the home features a washbasin and a garden. Special notes highlight the property's excellent sunlight and the availability of free parking for three vehicles.
The agent's remarks provide a comprehensive appeal. The location is praised for offering a perfect balance between "the relaxed feeling of the countryside" and "a reasonable degree of convenience." Kagoshima city center is a 30 to 50-minute drive away, while central Hioki City—which offers stations, interchanges, shopping malls, home centers, drugstores, 100-yen shops, and electronics retailers—is about 15 minutes by car. The area is also notable for its proximity to nature and recreation. The famous surf spot "Eguchihama" is less than a 10-minute drive away, and a nearby sandy beach is approximately a 5-minute walk. One can enjoy leisurely evenings watching the sunset over the sand, or spend days fishing for species like whiting, flounder, and yellowtail. The beach's walkable distance also allows for a safe return home. It is important to note that the miscellaneous land plots involve a 3/4 ownership share and require permission under the Agricultural Land Law, which may impose restrictions on sale depending on the intended use. While some land is classified as farmland, much of it is overgrown with weeds, making cultivation difficult in its current state. The property requires repairs to plumbing and flooring, will be handed over as-is, and contains some residual items (though there is a subsidy system for removal costs).
The Hioki area offers a serene lifestyle with easy access to both urban amenities and stunning natural landmarks. A notable local attraction is Fukiage Dune, counted as one of Japan's Three Great Sand Dunes, located within the region. This expansive coastal landscape provides a dramatic and unique setting for walks and photography, distinct from the property's own nearby beach access.
