Pros and cons of this 8LDK+2S house

Large two-storey wooden house with an 8LDK layout plus two storage rooms, about 349 m² of floor area (more than 105 tsubo) on a 990 m² lot (about 299.5 tsubo), built in June 1988.

Why it stands out

  • Generous plot: 990.11 m² (about 300 tsubo)
  • Built 1988, under the post-1981 earthquake code
  • Traditional kominka character

Points to check

  • Old wooden house: expect renovation work (roof, plumbing, insulation)
  • Station is far or bus-only — you will likely need a car
  • High earthquake exposure (64.9% / 30 yrs)

Can a foreigner buy it?

Looks straightforward. One small point to confirm with the agent.

FineYou own the landFreehold

Full ownership (shoyūken) of land and house — foreigners have exactly the same rights as Japanese buyers.

FineRebuild & road accessRoad access OK

Faces a public road of at least 4 m. Rebuilding is normally allowed.

FineEarthquake standardPost-1981 code (built 1988)

Built under Japan's current “new seismic standard” (shin-taishin, from June 1981). Wooden houses also got stronger joint rules in 2000; this one is before that.

CheckPaying for itPlan on cash

Japanese banks give little value to old wooden houses, and non-residents rarely get loans. Residents and permanent residents have more options.
