This Cheap $68K Japanese House Has Two Kitchens, Two Entrances and a Massive Garden 🌸
For around $68K, this enormous countryside home in Ishikawa offers lots of space. 🇯🇵 Built in July 1968, the two-story wooden residence provides 288㎡ of living space on a massive 1,461㎡ plot, with an 8LDK + 2LDKS layout offering 10 bedroom-capable rooms across two family zones.
Originally used as a two-family home, it has two entrances and two kitchens, making it flexible for a large family, guests or a future rental concept. 🌿 Traditional adjoining tatami rooms give the interior real Japanese character, while the dining area looks directly onto the huge private garden.
Outside, there is parking for up to 5 cars, peaceful rural views surrounded by one of Ishikawa’s well-known pear-growing areas. With attic storage, multiple toilets, a balcony, walk-in closet and generous outdoor space, this could become an impressive family estate, vacation retreat or countryside stay near Kaga’s famous onsen area.
