Historic 1927 Timber Home with Expansive Land in Miyama, Fukuoka
This unique property presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of history. Built in January 1927, this timber-framed two-story house offers 84.29 sqm of living space arranged in a 3DK layout, situated on a substantial 653.82 sqm plot of land. The property is located in the peaceful area of Yamakawacho Koda, Miyama City, Fukuoka Prefecture.
Essential agent notes have been translated: The property includes two outbuildings—a wooden, tile-roofed single-story warehouse measuring 33.05 sqm and a similar 9.91 sqm storage shed. It is crucial to note that the property is outside the urban planning area and is in a red zone (indicating potential hazard risk). The exact build year is uncertain, and the property is sold as-is, including any remaining items. The property boundaries are not explicitly marked, and the judicial scrivener for the transaction will be specified by the seller.
The home's character is defined by its traditional wooden construction and generous land size, offering significant potential. The spacious grounds provide ample room for gardening, expansion, or simply enjoying the tranquility of the countryside. The property is currently vacant, with a negotiable handover date.
The surrounding area of Miyama City offers a serene, rural lifestyle. An interesting local fact is that the city was formed from the merger of several towns, including Yamakawa, and is known for its beautiful natural scenery and traditional crafts. The closest major landmark is the historic Yanagawa River, famous for its picturesque canal tours and traditional 'donkobune' boat rides, located approximately a 30-minute drive away.
