Traditional Japanese Home with Mt. Tsukuba Views
This magnificent traditional Japanese residence commands attention in the Sakakawa district, offering breathtaking views of Mt. Tsukuba to the east. The property's impressive height rivals that of a modern three-story building, featuring an elegant irimoya-style decorative roof construction.
The home showcases luxurious architectural elements including exposed rafters, coffered ceilings, and shoin-style design features. A spectacular one-foot thick keyaki wood central pillar serves as the heart of the house. The home's one-meter wide engawa (veranda) and built-in horigotatsu (sunken table) exemplify classical Japanese design elements.
While the property's grounds are artfully landscaped with garden stones, stone lanterns, and carefully chosen plantings, additional garden space could be arranged by leasing adjacent fallow land. A private well adds self-sufficiency, and with only one neighboring house to the north, privacy is assured. The location offers excellent access to Tsukuba and Shimotsuma via a spacious bypass road.
