Quiet Residential Home with Garden and Parking in Bizen
This charming house in Bizen City, Okayama Prefecture, offers a peaceful retreat with its spacious garden and convenient parking. Built in November 1978, the property features a 119.83㎡ living space spread across two floors, with a traditional 6DK layout that includes multiple tatami rooms and a Western-style room.
The home sits on a 267.87㎡ plot in the quiet neighborhood of Yoshinaga-cho Minamikata, providing ample outdoor space for gardening enthusiasts. While the house shows signs of aging, such as slight floor warping and a ceiling stain from past water leakage (now repaired), it remains structurally sound and livable with minor renovations.
Bizen City is famous for its centuries-old Bizen-yaki pottery tradition, one of Japan's oldest unglazed stoneware styles. The area offers a blend of rural tranquility and accessibility, with Yoshinaga Station just 19 minutes away on foot. Nearby, the historic Shizutani School - considered Japan's oldest public school building - makes for an interesting cultural excursion just 4 minutes from the local bus stop.
