What about living in Japan for cheap, in a peaceful corner of Tsuyama City, nestled in the heart of Okayama Prefecture, where every day feels like a retreat 🌿. This renovated 4DK wooden house, built in 1959, sits on a generous 1,070㎡ plot, that’s over 1000 square meters of space to enjoy and breathe. The total living area spans 163㎡, offering a perfect mix of comfort, tradition, and functionality.
The interior blends the charm of an older Japanese home with modern conveniences✨. A bright system kitchen equipped with a dishwasher, induction stove, and plenty of space makes cooking a joy. The house comes with a separate bath and toilet, a vanity area, and even an auto-bath feature for effortless relaxation. Several air conditioners keep every season comfortable, while the flooring and large windows let in plenty of natural sunlight ☀️.
Outside, you’ll find a beautiful private garden, perfect for gatherings, barbecues, or simply enjoying your morning tea surrounded by nature 🍃. There’s also a large parking area that can easily fit three or more cars, and a nearby forest lot included in the sale 🌳.
