Rural Kominka with Farmland in Nagano's Tranquil Countryside
This property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a traditional Japanese kominka (old folk house) with attached farmland in the peaceful village of Nakagawa, Nagano Prefecture. The house, estimated to have been built around the Meiji era (approximately 1877), is a wooden structure featuring a 5LDK layout spread over a single story. The property sits on a generous 729.22 sqm plot (approximately 220.58 tsubo) with a building area of 123.96 sqm (approximately 37.49 tsubo). The land is designated as residential (宅地) in a non-city planning area with no specific use district.
Agent notes and features highlight the property's rural charm and condition. The house is described as a 'kominka' situated in a quiet residential area surrounded by greenery, offering pleasant views, good sunlight, and ventilation. Its location is noted as being near mountains and featuring田园风景 (rural scenery). The property is suited for an agricultural lifestyle (农的生活) and includes space for a家庭菜园 (home vegetable garden). Essential utilities include propane gas, electricity, and a public water supply. Important special notes indicate that the property requires major repairs (大規模修繕必要), connection to a sewer system (下水接続必要), and the farmland portion requires a change of land use designation (农地転用必要). The building year is unclear, and any demolition or removal of structures will be the buyer's responsibility. The sale is conducted as is (現況有姿売買), and further details require consultation.
