Renovated Family Home with Sea Access in Chiba's Shirako Town
This spacious detached house in Shirako Town, Chiba Prefecture, offers a rare combination of generous land, modern renovations, and proximity to the coast. The property has undergone a comprehensive interior and exterior renovation completed in March 2025, presenting a move-in ready condition. It sits on a large plot of approximately 144 tsubo (476.48m²) and features a 3SLDK layout, which includes a storage room, providing ample space for family living.
Key features highlighted by the agent include the recent full renovation, the expansive land size, the 3SLDK floor plan, and parking for up to four vehicles. A significant advantage is the property's location just about 500 meters in a straight line from the sea, offering easy access to coastal activities. The house is equipped with a system kitchen, multiple toilets, a Japanese-style room, a large garden over 10 tsubo suitable for home vegetable gardening, and features like a TV monitor intercom and heated toilet seats. The area is described as a quiet, green residential neighborhood with low surrounding traffic and good spacing between neighboring houses.
The property is served by public water supply, a private septic system, and individual LPG. The building is a two-story wooden structure built in June 1996. Access is available via JR Sotobo Line's "Yatsumi" Station with a 9-minute bus ride plus a 5-minute walk from the Kōji Bridge stop.
Shirako Town is part of Chiba's scenic coast. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Kujukuri Beach is one of the longest continuous sandy beaches in Japan, stretching approximately 66 kilometers. The area is also known for its surfing spots and fresh seafood. A major tourist attraction in the broader region is the Nokogiriyama (Sawtooth Mountain), famous for its dramatic cliffs, hiking trails, and the massive Nihon-ji Daibutsu, one of Japan's largest Buddha statues, carved into the mountainside.
