Central Akita 5DK Single-Story Home in Narayama with 396 sqm Land

Located in the Narayama district of Akita City — conveniently close to the city centre — this single-story (hiraya) wooden home offers a spacious 5DK layout across 102.41 sqm of floor area on a generous 396.28 sqm plot. The floor plan comprises a dining-kitchen (DK, 6 tatami), one Western-style room (6 tatami), and four Japanese-style rooms (8, 8, 6, and 6 tatami), providing flexible living arrangements. The home features ample storage throughout and additional outdoor assets including a garden, storage shed, a household vegetable patch, and a dedicated snow-dumping area — a practical necessity in Akita's heavy-snowfall winters. **Utilities:** Electricity is connected; city gas is available for the bath and kitchen; public water supply and public sewerage are connected; the toilet is a Western-style flush unit. Note: there is no on-site parking. **Condition & Legal Constraints:** Some repairs are required (多少の補修が必要). Part of the building is unregistered (建物一部未登記). Critically, the southern road frontage (access road) is classified as an extra-legal public right-of-way (法定外公共物), meaning that any construction or rebuilding will require a prior consultation and approval process under Article 43 Proviso of the Building Standards Act (建築基準法43条但書きの協議要). Prospective buyers must carefully investigate road access status and building permit eligibility before proceeding. The property sits within the Urbanisation Promotion Area (市街化区域), zoned First-Class Medium-to-High-Rise Residential (第一種中高層住専), and lies within the Residential Induction Zone (居住誘導区域). Built in 1952 (Showa 27), the structure is wooden and aging. **Proximity:** Akita Station approx. 1.7 km; nearest bus stop approx. 0.4 km; Tsukiyama Elementary School approx. 0.4 km; Minami Junior High School approx. 0.7 km; Nakadori Hospital approx. 1.1 km; supermarket approx. 0.7 km.
