Description
A century of memories carved into the land of a mountain village
This is a kominka (traditional Japanese house), approximately 100 years old, set in a mountain village 17 minutes by car from the center of Niimi City.
Its layout of connected tatami rooms measuring 10, 8, 6 and 4 tatami mats conveys the dignity of a bygone era.
The garden view from the engawa (veranda) and the long wooden corridor are among the atmospheric spaces unique to old Japanese houses, and they remain just as they were.
Also included are a kura (storehouse) beautifully finished in white plaster with black decoration, plus a large barn and warehouse, giving you the facilities that supported rural life.
A well-kept Japanese garden centered on pine trees remains, letting you feel the changing of the four seasons close at hand.
The site is somewhat narrow, but it can fit 3 cars.
Within a 5-minute walk there is farmland totaling just over 900 tsubo, so you can try self-sufficient living or even full-scale farming.
Niimi IC on the Chugoku Expressway is about 10 minutes away by car.
Although the location is deep in the mountains, access to major roads is secured.
Scenic spots in the area, such as Chiya Dam (Lake Sensui) and Shiroyama Park, are easy to visit.
This property comes with farmland.
For information on acquiring the farmland, please refer to the notes below.
