A Traditional Japanese Kominka in Iga City, Mie Prefecture
This property is a vacant traditional Japanese house (kominka) located in Yuyadani, Iga City, Mie Prefecture. The structure is a wooden building with a thatched roof for the main residence and tiled roofs for the outbuildings. The land size is a generous 487.62 square meters. The total building area comprises the main house at 85.95 square meters, a first storage shed at 48.92 square meters, a second storage shed at 12.23 square meters, and a warehouse at 19.82 square meters.
Critical agent notes specify that the exact year of construction is unknown and has been tentatively entered as January 1976. Importantly, the property is designated as non-rebuildable because it is located within a sediment disaster alert zone (red zone). The infrastructure, as reported by the previous owner, includes public water supply, a cesspit septic system, and propane gas. The sale is being handled on an 'as-is, where-is' basis, including any remaining items on the land. The seller, Nexwill Corporation, will appoint the judicial scrivener for the transaction. There is no rental history for the property, so no rent roll is available.
The area of Iga City is historically famous as the birthplace of the Iga-ryu school of ninjutsu, offering a deep connection to Japan's feudal past. A major nearby tourist attraction is the Iga Ueno Castle, a beautifully preserved white castle surrounded by one of Japan's highest castle walls and a picturesque moat, providing a stunning glimpse into samurai history.
