Traditional All-Hinoki Wood House in Kaiyo, Tokushima
This property is a traditional Japanese house constructed entirely of Hinoki (Japanese cypress), a prized and durable wood known for its natural beauty and resistance to moisture. Built in January 1959, this 67-year-old home is situated on a corner lot facing roads to the east and north. The property offers a generous total floor area of 102.00 square meters on a 76.00 square meter plot of land.
Key renovations were carried out around 1984, including the kitchen, washroom, entrance, and window frames. However, the property requires significant attention. Evidence of water leakage is present in various locations, indicating a need for roof inspection and repair. Furthermore, termite damage has been confirmed in several areas, necessitating a thorough inspection and subsequent treatment and renovation work.
The property's facilities include a separate bath and toilet (B/T別室), electricity, tap water, a septic tank system (汲取), and propane gas. The layout is a 6K configuration, providing six rooms plus a kitchen. Additional features include parking for two or more vehicles, a south-facing orientation, a quiet residential neighborhood, a system kitchen, two toilets, a bath with a re-heating function (追焚機能), suitability for multi-generational living (二世帯向), a corner lot, and a monitor-equipped intercom.
