Spacious Traditional-Style Home with Land in Tranquil Tokamachi
This property, registered with the Tokamachi City Akiya Bank, offers a rare opportunity to own a substantial home with significant attached land in a peaceful, green residential area of Niigata Prefecture. The house itself is a two-story wooden structure with a charming old folk-house style, providing 261.07 square meters of living space across a well-conceived 9DK layout. The first floor is particularly impressive, featuring two expansive 12-tatami mat rooms and one 10-tatmat room, creating an open and relaxed atmosphere perfect for family gatherings or hosting guests.
The property is fully equipped with essential facilities including a toilet, bath, independent washroom, water supply and sewerage, propane gas, public water supply, bicycle and motorcycle parking, a dedicated private garden, and ample storage space. A key highlight is the substantial amount of attached cultivable land, which includes several fields measuring 3.3 square meters, 54 square meters, and 82 square meters, plus a 106-square-meter rice paddy, ideal for hobby farming or gardening.
Special features of the home and its 427.11-square-meter plot include excellent sunlight, good ventilation, pleasant views of the mountains, and a flat, regular-shaped lot in a quiet neighborhood with low traffic. Its location combines the serenity of田园风景 (rural scenery) with convenient proximity to the city area. For recreation, a golf course and ski resort are located nearby.
The property is situated in the serene Hori-no-uchi area of Tokamachi City, a region renowned within the Shinano River basin for its stunning natural landscapes and deep snowfalls, which fuel a vibrant textile and snow festival culture. An interesting local fact is that Tokamachi is famous for hosting the Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale, one of the world's largest international art festivals held in a rural setting, where artworks are integrated into the local villages and nature. The closest major tourist attraction is the majestic Naeba Ski Resort, a premier winter sports destination easily accessible from the area.
