A Spacious Family Home in Oita City
Nestled in a quiet, south-facing residential neighborhood in Oita City, this property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial piece of land with a classic Japanese home. Priced at 8.8 million yen, the residence sits on a generous 330.57 square meter corner plot, offering both privacy and space rarely found in urban settings. The house itself, built in June 1963, spans 67.59 square meters with a functional 4K layout, providing a comfortable living environment.
The property is equipped with essential utilities including public water supply, sewer system, and propane gas. A unique and charming feature is the inclusion of a hori-gotatsu, a traditional Japanese sunken kotatsu table, which adds a touch of cultural warmth and comfort, perfect for cooler evenings. A critical point for potential buyers to note is the presence of an unregistered auxiliary building on the premises, a detail explicitly mentioned in the agent's remarks that requires due diligence.
This home is designed with practical living in mind. It boasts two toilet facilities, a system kitchen, a monitor-equipped intercom for security, and a bath with a reheating function. Its corner location enhances natural light and provides multiple access points. The property can accommodate two or more cars, a significant advantage, and its layout has been considered suitable for multi-generational living. The south-facing orientation ensures ample sunlight throughout the day, making the home bright and inviting.
The surrounding area of Oita City is a blend of residential calm and natural beauty. Oita Prefecture is famous for its numerous hot springs, or onsen, with Beppu Onsen being one of the most renowned hot spring resorts in all of Japan, located just a short drive away. The property is situated approximately a 20-minute walk from JR Kōzaki Station on the JR Nippō Main Line, providing connectivity to the wider region. This location offers the peace of a established community while remaining within reach of the amenities and attractions that make Oita a desirable place to live.
