It is a compact two-story wooden house located in a quiet, green residential area with low surrounding traffic. The house is situated on high ground, offering views of the mountains and proximity to ski resorts.

A critical special note is that the property is located within a sediment disaster warning zone (Yellow Zone). Additionally, there is an ancillary building on the premises: a two-story steel-frame and wood structure measuring 31.97 square meters.

The area around Hida City is renowned for its stunning natural beauty and traditional craftsmanship. An interesting fact is that the nearby city of Takayama, often called "Little Kyoto," is famous for its beautifully preserved Edo-period streets and its biannual Takayama Festival, considered one of Japan's three most beautiful festivals. The closest major landmark is the historic village of Shirakawa-go, a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its unique gassho-zukuri farmhouses with steep thatched roofs.
