Owner's Notes:

The property has been vacant for about nine years.

There are some belongings and things left behind.

Electricity and water contracts remain the same.

I haven't been to the site to check it out for about a year and a half.

The Yubari Interchange on the Doto Expressway is about a 5-minute drive away.

Yubari City is located in a hilly area surrounded by forests and clear streams, and is a city that experiences large changes in seasons and temperature between day and night.

We are looking for someone who is willing to take over after understanding the above.

Perfect for nature lovers, the home sits in a quiet locale, surrounded by lush greenery and close to hiking trails, making it an ideal spot for those seeking a peaceful retreat in the heart of rural Japan.

Owner's Notes:

This is a property I purchased previously. It's an old property so I think it will need some renovation before it can be used. When we purchased the property, the seller lost the key, so we don't have the key and are unable to check the inside. About a 10-minute drive away is the ruins of Tamaru Castle, the symbol of Tamaki Town. It is also adjacent to Ise city and once flourished as a post town for visitors to Ise Shrine.

We are looking for someone who is willing to take over after understanding the above.

Nestled in the scenic Tamaki Village, this cozy property offers a delightful blend of traditional charm and serene surroundings. Perfect for those seeking a peaceful rural lifestyle, the home is surrounded by greenery and boasts classic Japanese architectural details. Located within the heart of Mie Prefecture, this residence provides a harmonious balance of seclusion and accessibility, making it ideal for a tranquil getaway or a more permanent countryside retreat.

Owner's Notes:

This property was used until 2022.

A family lived in the house, but they moved away and it is now vacant.

The building was constructed in 1970 and expanded in 1979 and 1995.

There was a leak around 2021 and it was repaired.

We use city gas, but our water heater broke so we discarded it.

It was damaged in the Chuetsu earthquake in 2004, and the interior wallpaper remains torn.

1st floor: 6 tatami mats x 2, 8 tatami mats x 1, DK, bathroom, toilet
2nd floor: 6 tatami mats x 3, 8 tatami mats x 1

There is one parking space.

The house is adjacent to a city road, so a snowplow comes in the winter, but the roof needs to be cleared of snow about twice a year.

The furniture inside the building remains as it is.

The soul has been removed from the Buddhist altar and a memorial service has been held, so I think we will move it out.

Other than that I would like to leave it as is.

There are some messy rooms on the second floor, but we would like to leave them as they are.

We are looking for someone who is aware of the above and can take over the property as is.

This traditional Japanese house in Nagano offers a serene living environment surrounded by nature. The spacious layout, with tatami rooms and wooden accents, provides a peaceful retreat while still being conveniently located near local amenities.

Please note, there were no interior photos of the property provided, however, we'd recommend reaching out to the real estate agency for more information or to schedule a tour of the home.

Owner's Notes:

This is a property that I inherited from my father and that has been vacant for nearly 40 years.
It is about a 15-minute walk from Toyono Station, and the site is spacious and surrounded by greenery in a tranquil location.

I would like to sell it together with the adjacent forest.
Both the main house and the annex are quite old and in need of repair.

Because the property is in an urbanization control area, it is primarily intended for residential use (residential land before line drawing, setback required).
Please check with the City Hall Building Inspection Division regarding restrictions on renovations and whether or not rebuilding is possible.

There is no sewer system. Most of the remaining debris has been removed, but some remains.
There is a lot of bamboo on the premises.
Please check the hazard map yourself.

There used to be a private ancestral graveyard behind the house, but it has since been relocated and the land use has been changed to forest.

The adjacent farmland can only be sold to farmers who live near Nagano City, so this time we are selling something other than farmland (if you live there, you can rent it out for your home vegetable garden).

The property will be handed over in its current condition, so please include your plans for using the land when contacting us.

*Sales are limited to individuals only.
