Furthermore, important remarks on water utility charges specify a tiered excess water fee structure: 220 yen (tax included) per cubic meter for usage between 21 and 30 cubic meters, 1,100 yen per cubic meter for 31 to 40 cubic meters, and 3,300 yen per cubic meter for usage of 41 cubic meters and above.
Built in September 2003 with the detached structures completed around the same time, the two-story wooden main house and the single-story detached units are topped with zinc-galvanized steel plate and slate roofs, respectively. The property is equipped with LP gas for individual use, a private water supply, a gas water heater, and an individual septic tank system. Parking is conveniently available with one carport and one car space.
The surrounding Nasu area is a renowned resort destination, famous for its hot springs, lush nature, and outdoor activities. An interesting local fact is that the Nasu region is part of a volcanic plateau, with its fertile soil and clean air contributing to high-quality agricultural products, especially dairy. The property is situated approximately 3.4 km (a 6-minute drive) from the popular tourist attraction, Nasu Safari Park, where visitors can observe a wide variety of animals from the comfort of their car.
