Spacious 10-Room Traditional House with Extensive Land in Okazaki
This property is a substantial detached house located in Okazaki City, Aichi Prefecture, offering a rare combination of size and traditional Japanese living spaces. The house itself, built in October 1977, provides a generous 201.3㎡ of floor area spread over two stories. The layout is exceptionally spacious, featuring a 10K configuration with ten distinct rooms: six Japanese-style tatami rooms (each 6-jo in size) and four Western-style rooms (one 6-jo and three 10-jo rooms). This makes it ideal for a large family or for those needing multiple dedicated spaces.
According to the agent's notes, the property includes additional structures: a simple auxiliary building constructed in 1924 (Taisho 13) measuring 29.75㎡, and a storage shed of unknown construction year. The land is a significant feature, with a registered area of 1,155.75㎡ (approximately 349.61 tsubo), offering ample outdoor space. Parking is available for three or more vehicles. The property is currently occupied, and the handover date is negotiable. The building is wood-framed, with a floor-area ratio of 60% and a site coverage of 200%. The land is freehold ownership (所有権) and is located in an Urban Planning Adjustment Area (調整区域) with no specific zoning designation.
The location in Okazaki's Takishiri-cho area provides a balance of tranquility and accessibility. It is approximately 5km from the Shin-Tomei Okazaki-Higashi Interchange, offering convenient highway access. The area is rich in history as part of the Mikawa region, the birthplace of Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate. A notable nearby landmark is the historic Tokugawa Ieyasu's birthplace and the associated Okazaki Castle, a reconstructed castle that serves as a museum and park, offering a deep dive into Japan's feudal past.
