Property Features

Property Information

Discover the charm of Sawara Green Retreat, a cozy wooden single-story home nestled in a tranquil, green neighborhood of Katori City, Chiba Prefecture. Located just a 15-minute walk from JR Narita Line’s “Sawara” Station, this property offers a peaceful retreat with easy access to local conveniences. Built in 1979 (year unverified), the house features a simple DK layout with an 8-tatami dining/kitchen area and a 6-tatami Japanese-style room. Although the property is currently unregistered and cannot be rebuilt due to its specifications and lack of direct road access, it holds significant charm for those who appreciate traditional Japanese living. The northeast-facing home is situated in a quiet area surrounded by lush greenery, providing a serene atmosphere for nature lovers. While some items remain on the property, it is currently vacant and available for immediate delivery. Note that there is no parking space on-site, and buyers should be prepared for renovations to personalize this home to their liking. This unique property is perfect for those seeking a slice of traditional Japanese charm in a quiet, natural setting. Contact Old Houses Japan today to schedule a viewing or learn more about this one-of-a-kind opportunity!
