Warm Springs and Scenic Splendor: A 100-Yen Plot in Noto Peninsula's Hot Spring Resort
Discover an extraordinary opportunity in Ishikawa Prefecture's Shika Town, located in the heart of the scenic Noto Peninsula. This unique property is a 450-square-meter plot of land situated within the "Noto Onsen Kenko Mura" (Noto Hot Spring Health Village) resort area. The most remarkable feature, as detailed in the agent's notes, is that the land itself has a natural hot spring source. The owner originally purchased this peaceful, green-surrounded plot in the first year of Heisei (1989) with the dream of enjoying a relaxed lifestyle. Please note that any buildings visible in provided photographs are on neighboring lots and are not included with this land.
The property is offered for the astonishing price of just 100 yen. While the land cost is minimal, prospective buyers must be aware of potential additional costs. As indicated in the remarks, details regarding hot spring usage fees, resort management fees, and other maintenance costs must be confirmed with the owner after submitting an entry of interest. The property is a vacant woodland plot with no existing structures, offering a blank canvas for your vision.
The surrounding area of Shika Town is part of the "Noto's Satoyama and Satoumi" region, Japan's first area designated as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System (GIAHS) by the UN. The western coastline, known as Sotoura, offers dramatic seascapes. A fascinating local fact is that the coast is home to the world's longest bench, overlooking the beautiful Masuhoura Coast. The closest major tourist attraction is the majestic Noto Kongo's Married Rocks (Kigu Iwa), a famous scenic spot and premier sunset viewing location. This region is rich in natural beauty, fresh seafood, and renowned Noto beef, making it an ideal location for a vacation home or permanent residence immersed in nature and culture.
