The layout is a spacious 5LDK, comprising four Japanese-style rooms (each 6 tatami mats), one Western-style room (4 tatami mats), a combined living-dining-kitchen (LDK) area, two kitchens, two bathrooms, and two toilets. The property includes parking space, a motorcycle parking area, and a bicycle parking area. Utilities are connected to public water, public gas, and a septic tank for drainage.
Critical agent notes and special remarks have been translated and must be considered. The property is currently vacant. The interior of the second entrance has a partially collapsed ceiling, and there is some cracking in the warehouse. The agent explicitly states that there are other areas where deterioration has progressed, and a thorough on-site inspection is essential before considering purchase. Additional notes indicate proximity to Shirasawa Station (800m), the city hall (7600m), and kindergartens/nursery schools (4400m).
Makurazaki City, situated at the southern tip of the Satsuma Peninsula, is famously known across Japan for its production of high-quality katsuobushi (dried bonito flakes). The compact city is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces the East China Sea to the south. An interesting local fact is that despite wartime air raids and subsequent typhoon disasters devastating the city center, determined community efforts led to a strong recovery, creating the vibrant, centralized urban area seen today. The closest major landmark is the stunning coastline of the East China Sea, offering beautiful ocean views and a connection to the city's rich maritime and fishing heritage.
