Spacious 8DK Family Home in Tokamachi with Attached Farmland
This large, two-story wooden house, built in January 1987, offers a rare opportunity for a spacious lifestyle in Niigata's Tokamachi City. Priced at just 1,000,000 JPY, this property is registered with the local Akiya Bank and features an expansive 8DK layout across a total floor area of 176.63 square meters. The home is situated on a generous 367 square meter plot of land, which includes an additional 46 square meters of attached farmland, perfect for gardening enthusiasts.
The property's facilities include separate bath and toilet rooms, a water supply system, a traditional Japanese-style room (washitsu), an indoor space for a washing machine, and partial wood flooring. Key features of the home are its proximity to the city area, excellent sunlight exposure, and its two-story design. Special notes from the agent are critical for prospective buyers: snow removal is required for the roof (with some sections designed for natural snow shedding). Importantly, the property does not front a road as defined by the Building Standards Act; access is via a private road for which permission has been granted from the owner. The living access road from National Route 117 requires snow removal during the winter months.
Located in the quiet, south-facing residential district of Date Ko, the property is within walking distance of both a kindergarten and an elementary school, making it ideal for families. It also includes parking for two or more cars, city gas, a system kitchen, two toilets, a reheating function for the bath, suitability for multi-generational living, a corner lot location, and a monitor-equipped intercom.
The area of Tokamachi is famous for its heavy snowfall and is part of the larger Snow Country (Yukiguni) region of Japan, renowned in literature. It hosts the renowned Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale, a world-class contemporary art festival set in the stunning natural landscape. The closest major landmark is the majestic Naeba Mountain range, a popular destination for hiking and skiing, located within the Joshinetsu Kogen National Park.
