A three-bedroom freehold house in nail-free timber joinery, a short walk from the beach
Awaji is a quiet island in the Seto Inland Sea, linked to the mainland by road and within about 45 minutes by car of Kobe. This three-bedroom detached house was built in 2018 from naturally dried timber more than a hundred years old, assembled with nail-free Japanese carpentry techniques. It stands on a large freehold plot with a garden, an outdoor barbecue kitchen, a private sauna and an outdoor bath, with the beach a ten-minute walk away. It suits a buyer seeking a private coastal house for family use or a working retreat.
Why This Opportunity
The house was built in 2018 from naturally dried timber more than a hundred years old. It is assembled without nails using traditional Japanese carpentry.
The land is held freehold and is large for the size of the house. It leaves room for a garden, a barbecue area and parking.
A private sauna and an outdoor bath suit a house used for rest and time away from the city.
Parking for up to twelve vehicles is unusual for a private house. It suits guests or a household with several cars.
The beach is a ten-minute walk. Kobe is about 45 minutes by car and Osaka about one hour 25 minutes.
An outdoor barbecue kitchen with a dining area sits beside a large garden. The listing describes the garden as suited to growing vegetables.
