A Compact Property in the Tranquil Riverside Community of Shimokitayama Village
This property is a modest, two-room house located in a quiet residential area of Shimokitayama Village, Nara Prefecture. The home is set back slightly from the road, offering a peaceful setting within a green, riverside neighborhood with low surrounding traffic. It enjoys good sunlight and features views of the mountains.
The property is registered with the Shimokitayama Village Akiya Bank, a program for vacant houses. Essential utilities are in place, including a toilet, bath, electricity, public water supply, a septic tank (requiring periodic emptying), and propane gas. The house is a single-story wooden structure with a 2K layout. The total building area is unspecified, but the land size is a generous 158.54 square meters. The lot is corner-shaped and south-facing, with parking space for two or more vehicles.
It is important to note that repairs are necessary at the buyer's expense. Specifically, the floor in the bath changing area requires repair, and there is broken window glass. The property is approximately a 41-minute drive from the JR Kisei Main Line's 'Kumanoshi' Station, and is about 30,000 meters from a major route. Registration with the Shimokitayama Village Akiya Bank is required to proceed with this property.
The area is part of the scenic Yoshino region, known for its deep forests and traditional culture. An interesting fact is that Shimokitayama Village is located within Yoshino-Kumano National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site encompassing sacred sites and pilgrimage routes. The closest major landmark is the stunning Nachi Falls, one of Japan's most famous waterfalls and a key part of the Kumano Sanzan shrine complex.
