Can a foreigner buy it?

Good, with a few checks. Nothing blocking, but a couple of points 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.

UnknownRebuild & road accessNot stated

Road access is not described. Ask the agent about road width and frontage (needed to rebuild).

CheckEarthquake standardPre-1981 code (built 1975)

Built before the 1981 seismic code. Common for cheap houses and not unsafe by definition, but get an inspection and budget for reinforcement; banks and insurers treat these houses differently.

FinePaying for itCash-friendly price

At this price most foreign buyers pay cash by international transfer. No Japanese loan or residency is needed to complete a purchase.
