For around $6,000 USD, this unusually large Japanese house in Fukui offers 243㎡ of living space in a wooden two-story home built in January 1977. 🏡 The 7K layout gives you seven separate rooms plus a kitchen, making it appealing for a large household, creative studio, guest use, or a low-cost renovation project.
The home is connected to public water and public sewer, with an all-electric setup for everyday convenience. 🌿 The setting is one of its biggest attractions: Wakasa is surrounded by the natural beauty of the Sea of Japan, with the famous Mikata Five Lakes and historic Kumagawa-juku both about a 15min drive away.
Mikata Station is around a 17min walk from the property. The house is vacant and the listing also presents it as an investment opportunity with expected annual rental income of around $2,500 and an advertised 30% yield.
The exact address, the original listing, the full cost breakdown. Know the neighbourhood in ten seconds: every amenity mapped, every distance measured. Plus +20 new houses every week, hand-picked and translated, and exclusive access to our buying assistance and renovation service.
