Traditional Japanese-Style Home with Sea Views in Kasaoka, Okayama
This property, listed as Kasaoka City Akiya Bank No. 644, is a two-story wooden house offering a spacious 6DK layout with a total floor area of 114.96 square meters on a generous 308.25 square meter plot. The home features a classic Japanese aesthetic and includes a private garden, providing a peaceful living environment. A key highlight is the property's location, which offers views of the sea.
The property comes with a range of facilities and equipment. These include a gas stove, shower, toilet, bath (with a window in the bathroom), running water, and a septic tank. The energy source is propane gas, and the property has access to both public water supply and a well. The interior includes Japanese-style rooms (washitsu) and an independent washroom. The property also boasts a private, dedicated garden.
Important special notes must be considered. The property will be sold 'as-is', with some household goods and furniture remaining. There is significant damage requiring attention: the roof over the hallway leading to the toilet is broken and is leaking rainwater. Additionally, there are areas where the floor is sinking. The washing machine placement is located outside. Crucially, while the area is connected to the sewer system, this particular property is not connected to it.
Key features of this listing are its eligibility for office use, its registration with the local Akiya (vacant house) Bank, its traditional Japanese Kominka style, and its two-story construction. The land is a corner plot in a quiet residential neighborhood, facing south, and includes parking for two or more vehicles.
The home is situated in Kasaoka City, Okayama Prefecture, a coastal area known for its natural beauty. An interesting local landmark is Kasaoka's 'Kurashiki Bikan Historical Quarter', a well-preserved canal area with white-walled storehouses that offers a glimpse into the region's merchant history. The property is approximately a 21-minute drive from JR Kasaoka Station on the Sanyo Main Line.
