Pros and cons of this 1LDK house

A two-storey 1LDK log house built in December 1996, with 127.43 m² of floor space on a 991.41 m² freehold plot facing a road to the north.

Why it stands out

  • Generous plot: 991.41 m² (about 300 tsubo)
  • Built 1996, under the post-1981 earthquake code
  • Low entry price — easy to buy with cash

Points to check

  • Station is far or bus-only — you will likely need a car
  • Currently occupied: viewing and handover depend on the owner

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.

UnknownRebuild & road accessNot stated

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

FineEarthquake standardPost-1981 code (built 1996)

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.

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.
