Property Overview: Renovation Project Land with Old House in Tarumizu, Kagoshima
This is a piece of land with an old house located in Naka-mata, Tarumizu City, Kagoshima Prefecture. The property was originally lived in by the seller's grandparents while they worked as farmers. It is a property that is scheduled to be registered in the mother's name due to inheritance. The total land area is approximately 300 tsubo, comprising residential land, forest, farmland, and miscellaneous land. Immediately in front of the site, Kinko Bay spreads out and Sakurajima can be seen prominently. The seller suggests that barbecues and outdoor activities can be enjoyed on the property. Compared to Honshu, the area is warm throughout the year, with snow falling only a few times a year. It is also considered a good location for those who enjoy fishing and marine sports. A key characteristic of Kagoshima is the volcanic ash from Sakurajima eruptions, which falls especially during winter. While locals are accustomed to it, ash will accumulate on the windows of parked cars. The land categories include residential land, miscellaneous land, forest, and farmland, with a total fixed asset tax of approximately 18,000 yen (for fiscal year 2025). The forest and farmland are located a short distance from the residential land. On the residential land, there is currently a wooden single-story house of approximately 80 square meters. The year of construction is unknown. Currently, the house is not in a habitable condition. DIY or renovation is essential. Having been vacant for a long time, it has unavoidable deterioration consistent with its age. Some roof tiles have come off, and the interior walls, floors, and exterior galvanized iron are deteriorating. The gas is propane, and the toilet is a pit-type. The seller will dispose of any remaining items. If desired, used tools such as a brush cutter, reciprocating saw, electric scissors, and chainsaw can be given as a set. The seller may be able to provide assistant-level help for DIY work for a few weeks. This area is subject to ashfall during Sakurajima eruptions and is also frequently affected by typhoons. The front road is approximately 260cm wide, accessible for standard cars but difficult for medium-sized or larger vehicles. The area is peaceful with the sea nearby, offering views of Sakurajima and the sea during the day and the night view of Kagoshima City at night. Although a car is necessary, the Tarumizu City Hall is 8 minutes away, the Tarumizu Ferry Terminal (for Kagoshima City) is 10 minutes away, and supermarkets, home centers, post offices, and the Tarumizu Municipal Medical Center are all within 13 minutes, making daily life convenient. The seller resides in Kyoto Prefecture, so accompany guidance is difficult, and the buyer is requested to conduct their own site confirmation as much as possible. Delivery will be made upon completion of the registration procedures. The seller asks for polite communication and interaction. The desired price is 0 yen for the entire property (any fees incurred at the time of sale are to be borne by the buyer). This transaction is on an as-is basis and by public records. Farmland may be subject to the Farmland Act, requiring examination of actual farming ability and submission of documents. Due to many inquiries or transaction conditions, the actual transaction price may differ from the listed price. Please be fully aware that maintenance costs (taxes, repair costs, etc.) after purchase may exceed the purchase price.
