This unique property is a piece of living history, a traditional wooden house built in 1901, located in the quiet area of Bessho, Sennan City, Osaka Prefecture.

The property sits on a generous 168.59㎡ plot of land that includes a garden, offering a sense of space and privacy.
According to the agent's notes, the property requires significant repairs. The utilities include public water supply, public gas, and a septic tank drainage system. Notably, the electricity has been removed. The kitchen is equipped for gas use only. The property is currently vacant. It is located within an Urbanization Control Area and has no road frontage, which means it is not eligible for rebuilding. The handover details are open for consultation with the registered real estate agent.
Sennan City is a charming area in southern Osaka, nestled between the Osaka Bay, known as "Sea of Bream," and the verdant Izumi Mountains. The city is rich in history, with the ancient Kumano Kodo pilgrimage route passing through, leaving behind historic streetscapes and pastoral landscapes. The local economy thrives on fresh seafood like conger eel and octopus, and the cultivation of famous Senshu produce such as water eggplants and onions. The city is also known for its flower cultivation, featuring spots like the David Austin English Rose Garden within the Sennan City Agricultural Park "Hanasaki Farm." An interesting fact is that Sennan City is home to the world-connecting Kansai International Airport, adding an international dimension to this traditionally rich region. The closest major landmark is the scenic Kumano Kodo pilgrimage route, a UNESCO World Heritage site that runs through the area.
