Vintage Countryside Home with Expansive Land in Mihara, Hiroshima
This spacious 6DK detached house, listed on the Mihara City Akiya Bank, offers a rare opportunity to own a substantial property surrounded by tranquil rice fields and natural scenery. Built in October 1970, the wooden two-storey structure provides 116.06 square meters of living space on a generous 366.94 square meter plot of land. The property features a south-facing orientation, a quiet residential setting, a corner lot, and parking for two or more vehicles. The home includes a system kitchen, two toilets, a monitor-equipped intercom, and a bath with a reheating function, making it suitable for multi-generational living.
According to the agent's notes, the property's equipment includes electricity, tap water, a septic tank (汲取), and propane gas. A key feature is that it is a registered Akiya Bank property. Importantly, the remarks note that, depending on the purchaser's wishes, adjacent farmland and forested mountain land can also be sold, offering potential for expansion or agricultural use.
The home is located in the Yawata-cho Honjo area of Mihara City, Hiroshima Prefecture. This region is part of the Seto Inland Sea area, known for its beautiful coastal landscapes and historic sites. An interesting local fact is that Mihara is home to Mihara Castle, also known as Ukishiro (Floating Castle), which was built on a small island in the sea. The closest major landmark is the iconic Itsukushima Shrine, a UNESCO World Heritage site located on Miyajima Island, approximately a 30-minute drive away, famous for its "floating" torii gate.
