Discovered another incredible traditional properties in Japan that I personnaly like 😳 In Miyazaki, this authentic Taisho-era kominka was originally built in 1926 and sits on an enormous 3,286㎡ piece of countryside land 🌾 The property includes a massive 229㎡ living and commercial space currently operating as a traditional Japanese café, with beautifully restored interiors featuring glossy black wooden floors, open traditional rooms, and a timeless atmosphere that feels straight out of old Japan.
What makes this place even crazier is that you’re not just buying a house… you’re buying a fully operational dream space with room for a café, guesthouse, creative studio, or countryside business. The property also includes a separate renovated residential building, modern utilities, and parking for over 10 cars 🚗
And the price? Only $106K For a fully restored 100-year-old Japanese kominka business surrounded by nature, this honestly feels unreal.
