Renovation Opportunity in a Quiet, Green Residential Area of Iwakuni
This property presents a unique renovation opportunity in the tranquil, green residential neighborhood of Hirose, Nishikimachi, Iwakuni City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. The house is a single-story wooden structure built in March 1955, with a total floor area of 49.26 sqm (approx. 14.9 tsubo) on a generous land plot of 156.45 sqm (approx. 47.32 tsubo). The layout is a 4LDK, consisting of three Japanese-style rooms (3, 4.5, and 6.0 jo), one Western-style room (4.5 jo), and an 11-jo combined living, dining, and kitchen area.
Essential agent notes have been translated for clarity. The equipment includes a separate bath and toilet, a shower, a window in the bathroom, electricity, running water, sewerage, and side gutters. There is no designated indoor space for a washing machine. Special features note the property is near mountains, in a green, quiet residential area. Important remarks state the contract includes a disclaimer of liability for non-conformities. The property is sold 'as-is'. No land or building surveys have been conducted. There is an unregistered extension of approximately 6.61 sqm. The water supply uses a shared intake pipe. There is no on-site parking space; to create one, removal of stone walls and land leveling would be required. The interior and exterior show age-appropriate deterioration consistent with the building's year of construction.
The area of Nishikimachi is known for its lush, natural scenery within Yamaguchi Prefecture. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Kintai Bridge in Iwakuni is a famous historical wooden arch bridge, originally built in 1673 without using a single nail. The closest major tourist attraction from this property is the iconic Iwakuni Castle, a reconstructed hilltop castle offering panoramic views of the city and the Nishiki River.
